Carry Water - Grader

I might end on these endings, I start at the start, we’ve all got these stories,

we’re all broken hearts.

We’re just lovers and liars, we beg for forgiveness, pretend for so long I

forget I’m pretending.

Like love would turn out how you thought it would be, we cling to each other,

when life changed…

so did we, like it mattered eventually…

sing me something sweet.

I might end on these endings, I’ll start at the start and try not to look like

I’m falling apart.

Please don’t save me from sinking, it seems never ending, pretend for so long I

forgot.

And love and light only return to grey, and you can’t give back what you took

from me.

For all we’ve seen, we remain to sleep, and love and hope and you were born to

dream.

And you were never alone, no you were not alone at all.

You’re just a moment in time, it’s just this time in my life and there’s this

song on your lips, and there’s this hope in your eyes.

I know that something here’s wrong, I light these matches from matches…

could burn it all down but I can’t live with the ashes, I know, that you were

never alone, no you were not alone at all.
