| Tears well up in my face while I write this
|
| Thinking 'bout the day that we met and I reminisce
|
| Thinking 'bout the things I love about you that I might have missed
|
| Then I think about our first and our last kiss
|
| Yeah, I knew it was time to let you go
|
| But I hugged you just this afternoon
|
| And I didn’t want to let you know
|
| So I didn’t, I couldn’t, I wouldn’t
|
| And I contemplated reasons why I shouldn’t
|
| We’re so used to living in a five-star prison, it’s sad
|
| I feel so trapped
|
| This is better for the both of us, I know it
|
| This is my only way to show it, so I, so I sing
|
| Hush now little baby 'cause the bells' been breaking lately and that’s why
|
| The cradles on the branches and we’re out of second chances
|
| Say goodnight
|
| Don’t you, don’t you cry
|
| This is our lullaby
|
| Ink smears and the tears dry on my face
|
| You smile but your eyes can’t light a day
|
| You wanna ask me if something’s wrong
|
| But the words got caught on your tongue like a knot
|
| 'Cause we already did the damage now
|
| Too deep for a bandage now
|
| No hope for the lost and found
|
| And we can’t keep going 'cause we don’t know how, shit
|
| I know it’s time to leave
|
| But we’ll keep our memories
|
| I took a piece of you, but, god damn, you took a piece of me
|
| We’ll trace the shape of each other in our next love
|
| Tryna put the puzzle back together like it once was
|
| Might be hard to do 'cause no-one's you
|
| Hush now little baby 'cause the bells' been breaking lately and that’s why
|
| The cradles on the branches and we’re out of second chances
|
| Say goodnight
|
| Don’t you, don’t you cry
|
| This is our lullaby
|
| Something’s wrong, I’m feeling this lately
|
| Can’t go on, it’s draining me, baby
|
| Cut the ties, shut your eyes
|
| Now’s the time, say goodbye
|
| Don’t you, don’t you cry
|
| This is our lullaby |
