Revolutions

You look familiar
Like a home I used to live in
I don't recognise the rooms
They might have torn down half the building
While I find some kind of comfort
In the way you call my name I will not stay

Stole a date
You drove across the coast to come and see me
Always left something behind
So that you always had a reason
Kept it close enough that I could reminisce
The way it's maybe not the same
It doesn't change

There's broken glass in all the sand beneath us
There's always "maybe this time"

If this is love
Then I don't wanna be a part of it
I've seen the way it ends
Despite the highs you always start with

If this is love
Then take my name off of your tongue
I can't handle all the madness
I refuse to be a part of it, if it's love

I called you names
Little names that held a promise
Tried my best to call you distance
But it wasn't what I wanted
You did your best to keep a guard and so did I
It's not too late

There's broken glass in all the sand beneath us
There's always "why won't you try?"

If this is love
Then I don't wanna be a part of it
I've seen the way it ends
Despite the highs you always start with

If this is love
Then take my name off of your tongue
I can't handle all the madness
I refuse to be a part of it, if it's love

But maybe you can save my soul
Maybe you could be the half that makes me whole
Maybe you might not let go

I found your waves
Crashing down upon the coast
Of everything that I was sure of
Every skeleton and ghost
And in that moment I remember, I was safe
I heard you say
"It doesn't have to be this way"

If this is love
then I need you in every part of it
Every single taste of madness
every high burnt in my heart

If this is love
your name's already on my lips
For all the miles we are apart
I will fight through every part of this

If it's love
tear down the walls within my soul
'Cause you are beautiful in ways that I've never even known

If this is love
Then this is love
If this is love
