do you remember how it felt when your hand first fell in mine?
i remember with such clarity, I think about it all the time,
but I was caught up on some bullshit idea of how love was supposed to feel
and you were caught up on a barbed wire fence licking wounds that would never heal
no they wont heal
you wont let them heal
how come I feel like the one to blame when it was you who pushed away?
i was always at a loss for words, I guess that should have given it away,
but you were burning me like kindling, hoping to start your fire,
and I was standing at the base of your mountain, hoping to climb much higher
but you sent landslides
always landslides
now I can't feel.
now I can't feel your heart anymore.
