lyrics

found your moment of clarity never quite found the words for me 
shot your flare into the sky and watched it burn out in the night 
laying out what your mother gave take the mistakes that your father made 
whatever fits you for just one day 
just for a moment can we pretend everything’s like when we first met 
standing on the edge of a new frontier 
when you could break me with your love but not with fear 
headlights bending through the window shades 
i know you weren’t sleeping anyway 
can feel you crawling with restlessness 
i remember a better time when we didn’t count all the cracks we’d find 
and our hearts knew best 
love is a fugitive with the world in tow 
you could chase it down or let it go 
it’s a wonder anyone could get so near
