I wish I could let you be there
When it's finally convenient
Half starved and outside
Held together by twine
You want the credit just for showing up
But the spring is here now
We should get a fresh start
Let me in now
Oh no, I just can not trust that
I just can not leave behind
All that you've taken apart
This town is so damn cold
And your words are just the sighs of wind
Trying to relight a spark
But I've burned through all of the wood
All that's left now is to burn down the house too
I'm stuck in a fog
I can't seem to find my way out of it
And with the summer getting shorter
Will they stay outside?
The fall will hide
What is forgotten
And you said you wanted to start over
With a fresh new garden bed
What you got instead was this
Rotting willow to carve your name in
(Just let go)
Keep carving away 'til your name's all that's left
(Just let go)
Keep twisting all the branches make a crown for your head
(I let go)
Never wanted this, a bare patch of dirt
You tore all the flowers out by their roots
Cause you hated their colors when they bloomed
