Often Easy - Against Lyrics

There was a time you told me a quote
In a moment almost sacred
In a voice so low, sweet and slow
Our bodies close to naked
You said breathe deep and come to me
There's no need to be nervous
All we are is all we are
It'll never be closer to perfect
And when I cried, I mean really cried
My tears were sweet and salty
I think I felt like I would somehow feel
Like I was suddenly exalted
Like some profound catharsis
Could be induced by and instant
Like in a great undoing a grown ass man
Could be reduced to an infant
I wouldn't hold it against you
If you didn't defend me
I wouldn't hold it against you
If you had packed your things and gone
I wouldn't hold it against you
If you were sick of pretending
That the love we have is bigger than
Everything that's wrong
I stare out the glass while rolling fast
And let my eyes defocus
All my dread escapes my head
If only for a moment
Familiar cure, fade and blur
My eyes are barely open
I'll let the fire die out before
I'll let somebody else stoke it
When at last in one quick flash
My serenity departed
A tunnel plunges us face first
Into unrelenting darkness
And I'm forced to look eye-to-eye
Into my own reflection
When I most want to avoid
Any form of introspection
I wouldn't hold it against you
If you didn't defend me
I wouldn't hold it against you
If you had packed your things and gone
I wouldn't hold it against you
If you were sick of pretending
That the love we have is bigger than
Everything that's wrong
I wanna hold you against me
I wanna hold you against me
I wanna hold you against me
Until our bodies start to blur
I wanna hold you against me
I wanna hold you against me
Until the love we have is bigger than everything we were
