I want to hold your body Glowing and broken It's just been a long few years And I'm finally getting better I'm thawing out and I'm getting better You just take your time and I'll take mine (This might work out in the end, I don't know) You can cry your eyes out The world won't drown for you Oh but baby I would, I would I tried to tread so lighly With your wait on my shoulders It's just been a fucked up year And I heard you're doing better But my awful thoughts in frozen weather Kept you in my mind for all this time You can cry your eyes out The world won't drown for you Oh but baby I would, I would

Fran Kirby 02:21
I don't want to walk around with you no more I want to stay inside and fight your memory I don't want to walk around with you no more I want to stay inside and writer our eulogy I don't love you You don't love me I just want to feel like Fran Kirby Wearing 10 I never want to be here again I don't want to waste my time with you no more I want to stay inside and rot at my own speed Took too long to find myself without you Leave me here there's nothing left to see I don't love you You don't love me I just want to feel like Fran Kirby Wearing 10 I never want to be here again They say I could do better I never wanted to Maybe I could do better I only wanted you

Can't see the smoke The wind's too strong I think I walked too far This ugly house keeps falling down I'll pick it up in the morning I'm better than this awful shell I tell myself, I tell myself My lover cries in front of me She's a ghost only I can see I write the words, "love you so much" Bare on your back while you sleep I'm better than this awful shell I tell myself, I tell myself But this awful house keeps falling down On top of me, on top of me

Got a banana shirt and mustard colored slacks Flaunting that which you hate most while you're dressed all in black Got a banana shirt and mustard colored slacks Offend your sensibilities while you're dressed all in black Everything's bad, and everything hurts so bad But when you see me in blue You'll know that I still love you But when you see me in blue You'll know that I'm not over you Got a banana shirt and mustard colored slacks Black out drunk at 3 am and everything goes black Got a banana shirt and vomit colored slacks Drag myself home 4 pm the world is feeling bad Everything's bad, and everything hurts so bad Everything's bad, and everything hurts so goddamn bad When I'm alone, can't stand the thought of living I start to think about you When I'm alone, I wonder what went wrong with me and you
