these days

These days, I've found
A swollen life in rebound
6 days, one time
Cold ground

I tried too hard to lose you
A self-conscious wound I fell into
4:15 and I'm wide awake

It's a story told from despair
Of a love cut short by affair
Yeah, 19 was a fucked-up year

Now these open doors swing forward like they closed before
Summer days forever changed
And I feel free to blame, my conscience made a clause to claim
And now, I know that

These days, I've found
A swollen life in rebound
6 days, one time
Cold ground

I'll lose the chance to prove to...
Your intentions weren't cruel but stayed true
4:16 still wide awake

I rode you out on merit
Of what I thought I knew then, but didn't
Was out of steam, lost control of the wheel

And now these open doors swing forward like they closed before
Summer days forever changed
And you can feel the way
The melancholy grew in me
And now, I know that

These days, I've found
A swollen life in rebound
6 days, one time
Cold ground

These days, I've found
A swollen life in rebound
6 days, one time
Cold ground
