Lyrics

Pitch black, pale blue
It was a stained glass
Variation of the truth
And I felt empty handed
You let me set sail with cheap wood
So I patched up
Every leak that I could
Till the blame grew too heavy
Stitch by stitch, I tear apart, if brokenness is a form of art
I must be a poster child prodigy
Thread by thread, I come apart, if brokenness is a work of art
Surely, this must be my masterpiece
I'm only honest when it rains
If I time it right, the thunder breaks
When I open my mouth
I want to tell you but I don't know how
I'm only honest when it rains
An open book with a torn out page
And my ink's run out
I want to love you but I don't know how
I don't know how
No, I don't know how
I don't know how
I want to love you but I don't know how
I don't know how
I want to love you but I don't know how
I want to love you but I don't know how
I want to love you
Pitch black, pale blue
These wild oceans
Shake what's left of me loose
Just to hear me cry mercy
A strong wind, at my back
So I, I lift up
The only sail that I have
This tired white flag
I'm only honest when it rains
If I time it right, the thunder breaks
When I open my mouth
I want to tell you but I don't know how
I'm only honest when it rains
An open book with a torn out page
And my ink's run out
I want to love you but I don't know how, know how
I'm only honest when it rains (Know how, know how)
If I time it right, the thunder breaks (Know how, know how)
When I open my mouth
I want to tell you but I don't know how, know how
I'm only honest when it rains
An open book with a torn out page
And my ink's run out
I want to love you but I don't know how
I don't know how
I don't know how
I don't know how
I want to love you but I don't know how
I don't know how
I want to love you but I don't know how
I want to love you but I don't know how
I want to love you
