"Good Grievances" Lyrics

The tired drumming of the clock finds me exhausted,
I realize the irony.
The last three days has left me ruined,
I know that time is what I need
Maybe the drumming is the beating of my heart
Buried in the floor under your bed
You can have it since you had it from the start,
that is to say, if you want it,
it's broken.

Maybe I'll slip into my coffin early,
Bury me with the letters that you gave me.
If it should ever happen to rise above,
your handwriting, with my bones, they'll think you loved me.

[when nothings further from the truth]

you're clinging on to everything.
this noose is waiting for me to tip this chair.
pass the torch, I'm soaking myself in gasoline
I only want something to hurt more than this
So I can hold you to highest standards again

sorry for my apologies. Sorry if I ever said to much.
Sorry for your sympathies, sorry I could never be enough

All I want is your left hand upon my cheek and tell me I'm going to win
but you're not finished with your games
Cuz it's round two and you've bled me dry
and I cant make you love me
but I came so close. But I came so close.
so close your eyes,
I love you when you can't see anything.
