she said "if only i was half as high, imagine all that i could see!"
i said "you could be anything you want, why are you living on your ******* knees?"
this ship is sinking and the captain is still here
buoyed not by faith, but paralyzed by fear
lost the memories that she'd always thought she'd keep
while i'm always missing the forest for the trees
and i never said that it was easy, or that i was proud of what i'd done
i've gargled six days with gasoline and still can taste the blood
i'd rather leave it behind and remember it as lost
i'd rather leave it behind and remember it as love.
