Lyrics
wanted a better portrait of us
and i had always thought we'd have the time
i know i never was good enough for you
the son who never made it in your eyes
for reasons i've been looking to find
what you meant to me, i was too late to realize
you're like a whirling sea
swallow everything into your misery
but when i fall and start to sink
you're the silent waves below that carry me
and i know all good things, they end someday
yeah i know all good things, they end someday
and i still can't picture letting go
yeah, i still can't picture letting go
(three little words that i had spoken only once
they couldn't say, they couldn't say it well enough
i knew i should, i should've open what was shut
to understand, 'cause it's the least that i could have done)
was it yourself you saw in me
that fed into your fear, your worries, your disappointment?
i know you tried to build a harbour for this family
but your wings were not designed to shelter everything
(i never got the chance to say
that i will cherish all your memories
because nothing could ever take your place
and all along i just wanted for you to see)
and we'll find, when it comes down to the end
the walls that you had built so high
were not enough for what's spelt out in the blood,
couldn't save you from this cold farewell
or the poison that's been growing in your lungs
