Lift Me. Lyrics

The night we first met my nerves were high

But then we went to movies every night

You ask "Baby, who's place tonight?"

I say "Mine."

Maybe things would've been different

If you had different parents

They always taught you to cut love off

Now you cut our love

Now you're teaching me that love can die

But, it moves on in another life

I can't count all the times I've cried

But this will be the last time

You've got wings on your back

But they can't lift me

Was sleeping inside your bed

You gave back my keys

You've got wings on your back

But they won't lift me

Was moving way too damn fast

Now we both can leave

Went from late nights with your family

To waking up from that perfect dream

You said "It's not you, it's me."

I know what that means

I cut the band that weighed down my wrist

You threw my paper ring into the wind

Now its clear were not made to mend

We're made to end

Now you're teaching me to let things go

There's just some things you can't control

I can't count all the times I've begged

For someone to stay but they still left

You've got wings on your back

But they can't lift me

Was sleeping inside your bed

You gave back my keys

You've got wings on your back

But they won't lift me

Was moving way too damn fast

Now we both can leave

While you corrupted worlds I laid down the truth

Said "It's fine." looked for something blue

But I think deep down I always knew

I'd be here today writing Songs About You

And your tattoo'd wings were just always that

A mock-up of beauty but falling flat

And I think deep down I could always see

That you'd never be the one to

Lift me
