[ Featuring The Coal Miners ]
And I say, it flutters and fades
The heart, it grows shade with the day
I knew this much but something's colder
We're growing apart, I'm getting older
She had a great head on her shoulders
She knew that much but still I told her
She's getting away, the cards aren't folded, oh
I wanted to stay but still I'm hanging on
Saint Paul, don't write me off
I'm not trying to step on your feet
Don't want to hold you down
I weigh too much, I'm a burden to your words
I'm not trying to throw you off beat
Don't wanna slow you down, I want too much
I'm the splinter in your foot
I'm the pathway that you took
You're snow-packed, you're glacial at heart
You played to my vice, a shoulder of ice
We knew this much, Saint Paul had his day
Call it off, call it over, you wish I never came, oh
Saint Paul don't write me off
Saint Paul don't write me off
I swear I'm coming home
Swear to it, swear to it
