The Only Reason
Darling, come out tonight
The stars won't wait forever
I want to show you the trees
Bend backwards and break for me
This part of town has been keeping
Secrets from you
Tonight they'll concede your worth
And let you in
The cellist I always wanted to meet
Died in France of a rare disease
Her last request, a bird to fly north
Was shot a mile from shore
You looked a fucking mess that night
But I looked worse
Collapse in the leaves and
Shed your clothes for me
I can be the martyr
And you can be the cause
If only for now
The now is more than enough
The only reason I haven't read your diary
Is because I know that you don't keep one
The stars won't wait forever
I want to show you the trees
Bend backwards and break for me
This part of town has been keeping
Secrets from you
Tonight they'll concede your worth
And let you in
The cellist I always wanted to meet
Died in France of a rare disease
Her last request, a bird to fly north
Was shot a mile from shore
You looked a fucking mess that night
But I looked worse
Collapse in the leaves and
Shed your clothes for me
I can be the martyr
And you can be the cause
If only for now
The now is more than enough
The only reason I haven't read your diary
Is because I know that you don't keep one
