Paper Flowers (feat. Niki Galbraith)

The worst part of feeling alone
Is believing that it will stagnate
Because I've walked down this trail before
And didn't see your footsteps anymore
The loneliest feeling sinks into the dull
Lulling of the tide
Lowering I've tried
To search for your face
Along with the perfect words to say
But it seems you'd prefer to wander all along
And drown out my calls with your own song

And now I'm left to realize that all this time
I was searching for someone who wanted to be left behind

She said it was the wrong place and time
That our trajections just would not align
I wanted to change the path so we'd collide
But the alteration of my heart
Was something that you could not abide
Searching for someone who wanted to be left behind
Searching for someone
Who wanted to be left behind

You have these bitter bones that don't forgive
And you have thick skin that prevented me from getting in
Paper flowers that looked so alive
From a past time when I felt fine
Seems so long ago in my mind

Searching for someone
Who wanted to be left behind
Searching for someone
Who wanted to be left behind

She said my type of care was an acquired taste
And despite my sweet heart
It would all go to waste

And I will rest my bitter brittle bones
Where they can heal
Because you're happier alone without me here

And I will rest my bitter brittle bones
Where they can heal
Because you're happier alone without me
Here
