For the first time this heart ceases it's attempt to escape my chest.
And I've been down this stretch before,
eyes up over the wheel with my insides going crazy.
So this is what it feels like to have something to destroy besides me.
I hope you don't resent me for bringing you into me.
For bringing you into this. For making you an us.
Bleary-eyed at two-AM you poured it out on paper.
You half-drunk and me half-hurt, you spit out what I needed.
So this is what it feels like to have something to destroy besides me.
And then you glance at me with eyes a shade of hope.
Tell me with your lips but don't utter a word...
...crying my name. Still crying my name.
Keep me up all night, my eyes can't stay open forever.
