[00:08.49]I would build walls
[00:10.30]For miles around me
[00:12.05]Around anything that hurt
[00:13.74]Any sensitive category
[00:16.01]Kept love at an arm’s-length
[00:18.63]It was natural to me
[00:20.31]You did not agree
[00:23.25]
[00:23.81]You said things like “unhealthy”
[00:26.51]And I took on the task
[00:28.32]Of changing my pattern
[00:30.01]All you did was ask
[00:32.34]And the walls all came crashing
[00:34.30]At a welcoming speed
[00:36.39]I was convinced you’d never hurt me
[00:39.90]
[00:40.71]And I used to cling to the back of your mind
[00:44.30]But I must have let go
[00:46.26]At the moment in time
[00:48.63]When she offered careless physical joy
[00:52.38]Both bouncing my heart around
[00:54.63]Like a cheap rubber toy
[00:56.89]And after countless
[01:00.08]Hours
[01:01.64]Of crying
[01:03.81]Trying to forgive you
[01:07.73]Believe you
[01:09.38]Grow a spine and leave you
[01:12.00]Grieve you
[01:13.06]I’ve come to this conclusion
[01:17.20]No one prepares you when choosing to stay
[01:20.88]How to dare share a bed again
[01:23.06]Keep demons at bay
[01:24.88]She took something precious
[01:26.90]That was just meant for me
[01:29.02]Not for her eyes to see
[01:32.63]
[01:33.20]And I used to cling to the back of your mind
[01:36.95]But you must have let go
[01:38.90]At the moment in time
[01:41.34]When she offered careless physical joy
[01:44.95]Both bouncing my heart around
[01:47.40]Like a cheap rubber toy
[01:49.34]And after countless
[01:52.39]Hours
[01:54.15]Of crying
[01:56.52]Trying to forgive you
[02:00.20]Believe you
[02:01.82]Grow a spine and leave you
[02:04.20]Grieve you
[02:05.70]And after countless
[02:08.54]Hours
[02:10.34]Of crying
[02:12.66]Trying to forgive you
[02:16.66]Believe you
[02:17.91]Grow a spine and leave you
[02:20.73]Grieve you
[02:21.91]I’ve come to this conclusion,
[02:25.27]
[02:26.61]After all the years you invested in me
[02:31.16]All the love, tears, and possibilities
[02:35.43]I realize that if the tables were turned around
[02:39.09]You wouldn’t leave me now…
