These are the pieces I make fit
Instead of dumping it out and starting over again
I don't want to try
To start a whole new picture tonight
These are the pages I've reread
Never needing to know what happens next
I don't want to try
To start a whole new chapter tonight
What's on the other side of waiting for this dust to turn to diamonds and gold
When our precious hearts have turned stone cold
And I'm on the other side of caring what might've happened if I listened to my gut
And got going when the going got tough
I'm like a necklace at the bottom of a bag
Too tangled to get out
Too tangled to get out
This is the anger I let rust
Every feeling of doubt swept under the rug
I've learned how to try
To pick my battles better this time
What's on the other side of waiting for this dust to turn to diamonds and gold
When our precious hearts have turned stone cold
And I'm on the other side of caring what might've happened if I listened to my gut
And got going when the going got tough
I'm like a necklace at the bottom of a bag
Too tangled to get out
Change isn't safe
Better to let these old bones bend until they break
And it never felt like a lie when I said that I liked it just fine
So I never walked away
Kept calling it strength
What's on the other side of waiting for this dust to turn to diamonds and gold
When our precious hearts have turned stone cold
And I'm on the other side of caring what might've happened if I listened to my gut
And got going when the going got tough
I'm like a necklace at the bottom of a bag
Too tangled to get out
