Reprieve Lyrics

He was fully himself

Regardless of the circumstance

And it was quite the circumstance we got into

I took a stance

I would tell him in the morning time

but several mornings came

With nothing due

We lost ourselves

In the drunken sort of whisper

That two people who shouldn't be

Will always find

And there were words

The kind I don't wanna remember

But there was no untangling

This kind of bind

You see it all

Under a microscope

It's colors sort of real

And large in size

But in real time

It's a messy fuckin parasite

That collects and builds your life

To second prize

I know your pride

Will probably always take hold

And I'll likely never hear your voice again

It's all okay

Our season had to happen

For the breaking and the solace of a mend

You see it all so clearly now

After people and loves take their leave

In the end, it's all part of life

And there's beauty in allowing the reprieve

Oh yeah there's beauty in allowing your reprieve
