Always $$#uming the worst
But you going on
Nonetheless

And there's nothing to
Cushion your heart
Let fall


Letters from further away
Keep pulling me closer

To home
When there's something to
Cushion my callous eyes


And I know that you hope for
Longer, good-byes

And bracing for forever
Falling in your eyes
In your eyes

Your eyes

Pouring over photographs

I'm living in your letters
Breath deeply from this
Envelope

It smells like you
And I can't be
Without That scent

It's filling me
With all you mean to me
To me


Continually failing these trials
But you stand by me

Nonetheless
And you won't let me sink
Though I'm begging you

I'm begging you

Phone calls from further away

And messages on my machine
But I don't ever tell you
This distance seems terrible


There's no need
To test my heart

With useless space
These roads go on forever
There'll always be a place

For you in my heart

So I'll hit the pavement

It's got to be better
Than waiting
And pushing you far away

'cause I'm scared
So I'll take my chances
And head on my way on up there

'cause turning to you
Is like falling in love
When you're ten
