The Mechanic

I promise, I promise I'll fix what you need
Just give me some time and you'll see
I know it's been years since the first time you heard this
But this time I promise it's real
Like a dog that keeps whining but you love how it sounds
So you let it go hungry to hear it
Your shirts are all stained with the blood dripping out
And the problem gets harder to hide
Did we only let go to know we'd have something to find?
Darling, Darling, we've always been much more than this
I knew you weren't broken
I just needed something to fix
I'm sorry I'm sorry I know what I said
Now I have to live with it too
I had no idea what the words really meant
Until the day I said them to you
Hard times were never bad times
I know we're trying to find that again
Maybe where we're headed, doesn't include where we've been
Like a house that's on fire but you love how it feels
So you throw in the memories to feed it
The more you let go, the harder it is to leave
Darling, are we saying this is finally done
I used to be happy, now used to be is all I've become
We used to be happy, now used to be is all we've become
