Lyrics Glue Myself Shut - Noah Kahan

Glue Myself Shut

You used to be scared of the water
You’re safe by the side of your father
Your sense of the world lay
In your little home by the harbor
You’ve always felt small in the city
I think that last fall you were with me
And all of your old clothes
Are still in the hall of my building
You never asked once
No, you never asked why
If I was putting things off
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
Oh, you’d wear yourself thin
And accept every sin
And if I glued myself shut
You would find your way in
We gambled our souls to the summer
We rattled our bones to the thunder
We watched every sunset
Until we got sick of each other
You’ve always said fall was your season
That everyone’s here for a reason
I stare at your packed bags
And ask what the hell you were meaning
You never asked once
No, you never asked why
If I was putting things off
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
Oh, you’d wear yourself thin
And accept every sin
And if I glued myself shut
You would find your way in
It only feels real after raining
And hearts only heal after breaking
I stare at the tree line
And noticed the leaves aren’t changing
And does the wind blow in Cape Elizabeth?
Constant and cold, how do you live with this?
Love was a deadline
Spend the rest of my life fuckin' missing it
You never asked once
No, you never asked why
If I was putting things off
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
Oh, you’d wear yourself thin
And accept every sin
And if I glued myself shut
You would find your way in
