Lyrics I Wrote It Down For You - Bad Books, Manchester Orchestra, Kevin Devine

I Wrote It Down For You

I can feel it all without trying
I can feel it all without trying hard
She said I’m standing in your heart
She said it’s tearing you apart
I can turn it off when I wanna
I can turn it off when I wanna stop
She said it isn’t what you want
She said it isn’t who you are
So I wrote it down for you
So I wrote it down for you
So I wrote it down for you
You can keep it in your corner pocket
With your guitar picks and your cough drop wrappers spent
I figure you’ll forget again
I figure you’ll forget again
First initial cut and folded card stock
Slashes leaning at a new foundation
Feed, you gave yourself to me
And then you showed myself to me
So I wrote it down for you
So I wrote it down for you
So I wrote it down for you
Love is anything you wanna make it
Brushing your hair with my hand around your throat
We don’t have to be alone
I guess we never were alone
I exist and so do you
If God is goosebumps, you’re the proof
So I wrote it down for you
