One Foot Tied
Nothing can go wrong today
When you look at me that way
People say that I'm not wise
To find my future in your eyes
Hold me tight, ask me to stay
Just like this every passing day
Dry those tears falling from your eyes
Because I have no feelings left to hide
You have come and set me free
Finding you is finding me
And there's no way that my mind
Can understand why you are mine
Hold me tight, ask me to stay
Just like this every passing day
Dry those tears falling from your eyes
Because I have no feelings left to hide
Unpacking thoughts in the place where we first met
Sidewalk chalk and a sun we hoped would never set us down
I wrote to you that day I left, and every single day since
I went to bring you flowers and found myself alone instead
I ran. It must be real because fiction always makes the most sense
I looked at you and I lost myself and found me somewhere else
I never meant to leave you. It was chaos. It was wrong
One bound might cross and ocean; I found a home, I let it fall
And fall, beneath the weight of all the lost words I'd dreamed of
When I found my feet had taken me and found my way above
I found my dream had gone. Love ran faster than I could run
And every place I looked for you I found empty and undone
And the roof collapsed and crushed me there all broken and alone
Our empty house was everything we left it but a home
So I walked as fast as I could walk, as slowly as I could
Every ounce of energy I had I spent on you
I lost my faith in everyone and I wished I'd never left
But there's one last hope to keep my wicked feet from wandering
I'll keep one foot tied so I might stay with you and rest
Find you again and get this planet off my chest
I'll be still. I'll be settled. I'll be sober. I'll be true
I'll be everything I should have been, this time just stay with you
My wicked feet destroyed me once and carried me away
But here I come, here I belong, here only will I stay
I'll stay
You say I'm worth fighting for
And promise there's so much more
Than the pain I feel
Oh, tell me what is real
I know what my heart is feeling
I know what my ears are hearing
And fighting gravity is pure insanity
We're fading faster than the frost on this windowpane
And I don't know if my heart can handle this again
When you look at me that way
People say that I'm not wise
To find my future in your eyes
Hold me tight, ask me to stay
Just like this every passing day
Dry those tears falling from your eyes
Because I have no feelings left to hide
You have come and set me free
Finding you is finding me
And there's no way that my mind
Can understand why you are mine
Hold me tight, ask me to stay
Just like this every passing day
Dry those tears falling from your eyes
Because I have no feelings left to hide
Unpacking thoughts in the place where we first met
Sidewalk chalk and a sun we hoped would never set us down
I wrote to you that day I left, and every single day since
I went to bring you flowers and found myself alone instead
I ran. It must be real because fiction always makes the most sense
I looked at you and I lost myself and found me somewhere else
I never meant to leave you. It was chaos. It was wrong
