lyrics

I did not think this through
Broke all of my promises to you.
It's been at least two years, and some things are slow to change. 

But I still know who you are.
See through your clothes right to your scars. 
A crime I must commit, when you look at me like that. 

The realization is rising slowly 
The day I left is sweat upon my brow. 

I know I should have stayed. 
I see it clearly now. 
I should have stayed away, 
I will not say a single word out of place. 

Is it longing or regret?
Was I missing you if I chose to forget the ways in which your smile pays dues it never owed?

In a moment stretched too thin
The sun sets golden upon your skin.
The tides are high, I'm losing my conviction. 

The realization is rising slowly 
The day I left is sweat upon my brow. 

I know I should have stayed. 
I see it clearly now. 
I should have stayed away, 
I will not say a single word out of place.
