Somewhere to be
Soft lamps hanging in the back yard
Swaying like they've got somewhere to be
And if they ever get loose
I hope they float out past me toward the sea
His eyes alight like a carnival ride
But I'm stuck here on the ground and I lied
I'm terrified of your highs and lows
If you go off the rails well I should have know
I can't run away
I close my eyes I see your face
These excuses that you make
You promised you would keep me safe
I can't run away
Not with your hands around my waist
You're my favourite mistake
And I forgive you every day
You're lighting up like it's time to go
So I grab our coats so we can head home
You say I'm everything and you're mine
You're still smiling I'm just fine
But everything you are is barbed wire
And I'm not worth much if I'm on fire
But at least I'll keep you warm
I can't run away
I close my eyes I see your face
These excuses that you make
You promised you would keep me safe
I can't run away
Not with your hands around my waist
You're my favourite mistake
And I forgive you every day
Swaying like they've got somewhere to be
And if they ever get loose
I hope they float out past me toward the sea
His eyes alight like a carnival ride
But I'm stuck here on the ground and I lied
I'm terrified of your highs and lows
If you go off the rails well I should have know
I can't run away
I close my eyes I see your face
These excuses that you make
You promised you would keep me safe
I can't run away
Not with your hands around my waist
You're my favourite mistake
And I forgive you every day
You're lighting up like it's time to go
So I grab our coats so we can head home
You say I'm everything and you're mine
You're still smiling I'm just fine
But everything you are is barbed wire
And I'm not worth much if I'm on fire
But at least I'll keep you warm
I can't run away
I close my eyes I see your face
These excuses that you make
You promised you would keep me safe
I can't run away
Not with your hands around my waist
You're my favourite mistake
And I forgive you every day
