please don't keep me
(please don't leave me)
afterall

Hold on this will
hurt more than
anything has before
What it was,
what it was,
what it was
I've brought this on us
more than
anyone could ignore
What I've done,
what I've done,
what I've done
I've worked for so long
just to see you mess around
What you've done,
what you've done,
what you've done
I want back the
years that you took
when I was
young
I was young,
I was young,
but it's done
Oh take it all away
I don't feel it anymore
Oh take it all away
Oh take it all away
I don't feel it anymore
Oh take it all away
We'll fall just like stars being hung by only
string
Everything, everything, here is gone
No map can direct
how to ever make it home
We're alone, we're alone, we're alone
Oh take it all away
I don't feel it anymore
Oh take it all away

. . .


Mom and dad parted ways
We were young and got good grades and
Trees in yards meant to climb
We left home and never looked behind

To feel alone
We feel alone

You and I parted ways
I don't think I'll ever see your face
We latch on to a heart
Meant to hold but we get torn apart

To feel alone
We feel alone

. . .


There's room between your heart
And the chair where I've been sleeping
The place that we called home
Will someday watch you leaving

There's room between today
And the last time that I saw you
The pictures in my brain
Will fade until I lose you

If you would come back home
We could start all over
If you would come back home
I swear it would be better

There's room left in the house
There's food still in the pantry
I could fix you lunch
Or take you out for coffee

Call the surgeon. Mend the pieces.

. . .


My demons walk with me
They told me not to leave them alone
I put you on that tree
I tore your heart to pieces

You swept me off my feet
You gave your heart to me alone
I left you out at sea
I left you there to bleed

But please forgive me
Please, please forgive me

My demons waltz with me
I begged them not to leave me alone
And so your heart is free
And so your heart is free

. . .


Box springs are stained with yellow
Pillows held our heads now hold in the rain
Outside on the curb where I wasted half of your life
Both of our lives

Everything's closer to the end but
I will get farther from you
Everything's closer it's the end but
I will get further from you

Your eyes are blue but I can't see that color hue
It's been so damn long
God I was wrong

I'm dead to you, you say we are friends but
What is a friend when
There is a man who
Sleeps in your bed to?

. . .


Walked back home from this disaster
Saw your ghost under the plaster
Heart's in throat and broken to pieces
I'm coming home

Lost my way and gave up my treasure
Hid my heart and lost you forever
There's flesh in you that won't know her father
I can't come home

Loved you first when we were children
You broke my heart but all that's forgiven
We lost our chance to love one another
We'll love again just not each other

. . .


How long should I wait before I let you go?
How long should I decide?
Whose side should I take
When both of us were wrong?
When we both share the blame

Oh but I love you even still even now
Even though we fell apart
Even still even now
But I hope we'll meet again

Whose eyes will you look in
When love is in your heart?
Whose hand will hold your ring?
Whose voice will serenade
To help your baby sleep?
To make it all okay

Oh but I love you
Even still even now
Even though we fell apart
Even still even now
And I hope we'll meet again
Even still even now
Even though we fell apart
Even still even now
And I hope you'll be okay

. . .


I'm not comfortable with how we never talk
And I miss you since you went out for that walk
Its been 13 months since May
It still feels like yesterday

I was scared to fix what I had broke
Its a lonely place to live with just a ghost
There is love left in my life, I will see
But you still hurt me

I can still see all your clothes thrown on the floor
There are friends who never call me anymore
I remember throwing out all of your things
But I think I kept your ring

I'm not comfortable with how the story ends
We were lovers and now we're not even friends
You were perfect and I guess I'm just a creep
But you still hurt me

. . .


Don't put your faith in my heart
I will only let you down
Don't let your love grow too deep
I don't think I'll be around
There is a curse in my bones
That'll breathe and fly again
Until when we both are ghosts
I will miss you like a friend

But they'll never take the good years
There are some that never burn
No they'll never take the good years
God I wish I would've learned

Don't be afraid to move on
You were meant to bear a child
Don't look for me when you're gone
It'll only hurt a while

. . .


You were the only thing I ever loved
But taken for granted you couldn't stand it anymore

You were my lover for nearly 8 years
But I am my father and I found another

The last 16 months have been nothing but hell
I thought about jumping
That'd be something

In the short time that I'd learn how to fly
Would you forgive me
Or bring flowers to me by the grave?

Will you look the same
When I meet you up there?
Remember my name please
Will you look the same
When I meet you up there?
Remember my name
Find me to forgive

I haven't seen you for over a year
I head you were married, the baby you carried
Isn't mine

I don't suppose that you'll still have my name
You'll have another
You're not my lover anymore

. . .


Moonlight will fall
Winter will end
Harvest will come
Your heart will mend

Goodmorning
Goodmorning
You will find love
Goodmorning
