| Take on the weight of a happy ending
|
| You can’t bear it all til you stop pretending
|
| Wake up and see how imperfect we are
|
| I lash out at times when I’ve got no right to
|
| You shut down and close out the ones who love you
|
| We’re flesh and bone, made of muscle and scars…
|
| In a perfect love there’s always something wrong
|
| In a world defined by moments it’s the long term
|
| The slow burn
|
| And I can’t try to justify at all
|
| Love, will you be here after the fall?
|
| Blacktop the hum of the motor running
|
| Five hours to go and my stomach turning
|
| White lines and guides only take you so far
|
| No storybook ever reaches this part
|
| True love plus life leads to heavy hearts
|
| Just hold tight to me and we’ll see what we are…
|
| In a perfect love there’s always something wrong
|
| In a world defined by moments it’s the long term
|
| The slow burn
|
| And I can’t try to justify at all
|
| Love, will you be here after the fall? |
