lyrics

By the waning moon, I left your bed
There was so much that we left unsaid
But you don't want to talk to me
Every time we get in close
You avert your eyes, and they lose their glow
You want to bring us out of the deep
Drink and smoke until you fall asleep

Well I don't want to live shut down
And I've waited too long to figure you out
I can't explain it, It's irrational but I love you
I want to trust you with my heart
And I don't want to let go

Maybe I got stuck on your potential
Instead of looking at what's right in front of me
The human fireball blowing in every direction
No kind of easy compromise I can foresee
But I don't want to give up now
Not when there's so much that we could figure out about the world
If you gave me a chance, and you didn't give up on me

Does it make sense to trust you with my heart?
Well I don't have any reason to believe you'd do anything good with it
Maybe you'd just move on to the next thing, just like that
Lots of new territory to discover
Lots of pretty boys, lots of different lovers
Lots of bigger, better things that you could do
I only wish you'd want to stay with me too
All alone in the middle of the woods
Just thought it would be nice to live just you and me
