Straws

You've been grasping at straws
Trying to find enough build
A tiny house that's flawed
But big enough for us to live
And It's all perfectly planned
Until the hands of time
Reach down as quickly as they can
To grab the roof we need to survive

Your eyes are missing
The signs I'm giving

Tried to save you from seeing this side
Bet I'll have you begging for the light

My words were never enough
They always ended up coating your tongue
So you sit in silence
As you watch me
Paint over ivories with blood
No I don't need your sympathy
What I need is you to run
This whole idea of you and me
Sounds enticing until it's not

Your eyes are missing
The signs I'm giving

Tried to save you from seeing this side
Bet I'll have you begging for the light

We're running in circles
But I don't know what's worse
Crumbling inside
Or watching you try
To cut through my fog with your light

Tried to save you from seeing this side
Bet I'll have you begging for the light
Tried to save you from seeing this side
Bet I'll have you begging for the light
