I've given up my fingers so I wouldn't feel your skin Or let you lay your hands on me the way it's always been I'll stay inside my head where there is nothing left to lose And watch myself surrender to the memories of you I cannot say I want this but I cannot say I don't And living in the middle makes goodbye my new hello I've waited out the pressure I was feeling in my bones I've realized the meaning, what it means to be alone And if you choose to fight it know my hands are fast asleep They're locked away with someone who has promises to keep Although I couldn't see it in the corner of my eye My person has a reason to continue asking why But after so much breaking we can never be the same Or settle in the valley, it's the meaning of your name
