lyrics

Thought I was different
that I could just stumble into love
and all their sage advice
no the rules, they don't apply

I could sense it in my gut
running with both my eyes shut
a night of making plans
what could go wrong?
what do you say?
where do you stand?

Lying awake
our lives at stake

Cracks show through the pavement
weeds poke through the grass
but I'll only see signs of things that last

All the things that make me me
I give it all to you for free
and if you don't know where to start
I can tear myself apart piece by piece

Cause if it comes from the heart
then love has to start
or fall apart
you were perfect for this part

Cracks show through the pavement
weeds poke through the grass
but I'll only see signs of things that last

Threads fray in the sweater
in trees, rot shows in the bark
but I only see light when things are dark
