Emily (feat. The Staves)
When your heart control you it strangles up your mind
There's a haze above you and glaze over your eyes
It's the place you flee to when you want to run and hide
Sit by yourself, losing track of time
Emily, won't you let me in?
Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend
All those years of heartache would've turned me into stone
I can see why you might wanna be left on your own
Maybe when you're older it won't cut you like a knife
But it's not my place to tell you how to live your life
Emily, won't you let me in?
Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend
Yours is a leaf worth turning over
But I'm not trying to be your lover
Just another shoulder to cry on
Emily, won't you let me in?
Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend
Oh Emily, won't you let me in?
Put down your gun, don't you let this be the end
There's a haze above you and glaze over your eyes
It's the place you flee to when you want to run and hide
Sit by yourself, losing track of time
Emily, won't you let me in?
Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend
All those years of heartache would've turned me into stone
I can see why you might wanna be left on your own
Maybe when you're older it won't cut you like a knife
But it's not my place to tell you how to live your life
Emily, won't you let me in?
Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend
Yours is a leaf worth turning over
But I'm not trying to be your lover
Just another shoulder to cry on
Emily, won't you let me in?
Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend
Oh Emily, won't you let me in?
Put down your gun, don't you let this be the end
