Everything Stays

In the quieter mornings
I talk to myself now
The world has all ended
At least I pretend it
And I was left over

An etch in the limestone
And I could sedate it
Instead, I replay it
A memory pacing, at times it is speaking
I talk to myself now
Or was I just thinking?

Everything's tethered two parts
I don't have the heart (ooh)
To let it wither away
Everything stays

And if I can manage
I can rebrand it
The pain it has caused me
So much I can't stand it
Could be something better
If I can remember

The love on the B sides
That no one could sever
From every whisper
The glances and gazes
And it's never over
It's only in phases

Everything's tethered two parts
I don't have the heart
To let it wither away
Everything stays

An eminent felling (an eminent felling)
Of imminent peeling (of imminent peeling)
Of something corrupting (of something corrupting)
To something revealing (to something revealing)
A quiet salvation (a quiet salvation)
A soft resignation (a soft resignation)
It all happens slowly (it all happens slowly)
But I can be patient (but I can be patient)
