a knife and your love
apples you carved into small browning doves
a knife and your love
apples you carved into small browning doves
i'm ready for
however long i'm doomed to miss you for
i said "leave it alone"
and let you get lost in the air,
if i'd known.
i knew it would be me
i've felt life without you before
i've practiced how it feels
saying "i had him, but not anymore."
must've been good
we put up with so much bad just to have it
must've been good
we put up with so much bad just to have it
i'm ready for
remembering all of these things on my own
i always knew
being alone would feel like being with you.
i knew it would be me
i've felt life without you before
you'd not have done for me
the mourning and everything
that i'm good for.
why'd it fool me
why'd it take my lover, my lover
why'd it fall
and why'd it break
my lover, my lover.
