Lyrics
Started to like myself better
The longer I was with you
I grew as strong as the storms we'd weather
Forgot that I was born blue
When we were riding the waves
And you said I was safe, did you mean it?
'Cause now you're pulling away
As I drown in the wake of your leaving
Of your leaving
I handed over my heart
Thought I could let down my guard
Maybe that makes me a fool
Now you say
I'll find the one that I need
That's fucking hard to believe
When all I needed was you
And you swore blind, your blood on mine
You'd stay with me
I know you tried
But I'm the promise you couldn't keep
I put my head on your shoulders
I never let anybody closer
You're building a wall, don't you care anymore?
I'm in pieces (I'm in pieces)
And now you stand at the door
Saying I'm not the cause of your leaving
But you're leaving
I handed over my heart
Thought I could let down my guard
Maybe that makes me a fool
Now you say
I'll find the one that I need
That's fucking hard to believe
When all I needed was you
And you swore blind, your blood on mine
You'd stay with me
I know you tried
But I'm the promise you couldn't keep
If I was sure about you
Then maybe nothing is true
Now I don't even think we really put a man on the moon
There'll be no summer in June
And I'll just go back to blue
Believing everyone will leave me in the end because you
Swore blind, your blood on mine
You'd stay with me, yeah
I know you tried
But I'm the promise you couldn't keep
