hold me back
because I want to
I want to
hear me out
'cause I'm talking
about you
I called it's name
and the water
was lifted
I felt her hand
lead me down to the creek
we laid drenched in the heat
carry on, she said
to the voice inside of her head
there was no sound
'til the rain came down
a quiet hum
becomes her
in this place
leather hands...
he smiles like a thief
steals the tears off her face
carry on, she said
to the voice inside of her head
there was no sound
'til the rain came down
how it feels to lay in the soft light
in the soft light, oh
feel the rain as it comes down
gently washes past your throat
hold steady
please remember what you saw
I'll wait forever and ever
a quiet life
a fixture
a tight frame
beat beat beat
as the heart tries
to maintain life
we can't go back
and we've known it for hours
we give up more and then more
and then bring down the house
as we walk out the door
carry on, she said
to the voice inside of her head
there was no sound
'til the rain came down
how it feels to lay in the soft light
in the soft light, oh
feel the rain as it comes down
gently washes past your throat
hold steady
please remember what you saw
I'll wait forever and ever
you'll find what you've found
when you dig in the ground
because I want to
I want to
hear me out
'cause I'm talking
about you
I called it's name
and the water
was lifted
I felt her hand
lead me down to the creek
we laid drenched in the heat
carry on, she said
to the voice inside of her head
there was no sound
'til the rain came down
