Lightly sifting through this mess Rearranging all of the tANGlEd wires beneath this flesh Unplugging all the burnt out chords collecting dust between v e i n s - Like the one that deals with missing you And the one that deals with hating you Knocking down the walls that kept them safe behind my eyes Opening the flood gates Soaking through your t-shirt Leaving a t r a i l of salt in every room of this house Claw marks at the door ---- Stay behind the threshold  I'm not letting you in this time around

Locked Doors & Bent Wires
Lightly sifting through this mess Rearranging all of the tANGlEd wires beneath this flesh Unplugging all the burnt out chords collecting dust between v e i n s - Like the one that deals with missing you And the one that deals with hating you Knocking down the walls that kept them safe behind my eyes Opening the flood gates Soaking through your t-shirt Leaving a t r a i l of salt in every room of this house Claw marks at the door ---- Stay behind the threshold  I'm not letting you in this time around
