Lyrics

 
Lately, I’ve been thinking
Why don’t you love me?
After all the sweating and bleeding
I’ve done for you?
Do you want to see my senses flake?
My vertebrae keep cracking 
From the weight of carrying both our names

Do you want to see me break down?
Come begging for your blessing?
Worship every word that you say?
By grace in-kind?
 
Because you’re closer now to me
Than I wanted
You’re closer now to me
Than I can change 
I don’t want to let you win 
I’ll get you inside of my head
And play the game of relationship
In public and private
Make moves like the weather
Darker with every turn
And we’ll resolve the winter when your heart, freezes 

Behind closed doors 
I feel you breathing
From across the hall
I know you’re steady working
Trying to keep yourself calm
To keep yourself from screaming
But your head starts to ache
And you’re wanting for the weekend
You can close your eyes 
And pretend you’re the queen of all the crones 
But when we get alone (You’re not so clever)

But I’ll still break down!
This game is so distressing
Rip me up and tear me to shreds
By force or mind

Because you’re closer now to me
Than I wanted
You’re closer now to me
Than I can change 
I don’t want to let you win 
I’ll get you inside of my head
And play the game of relationship
In public and private
Make moves like the weather
Darker with every turn
And we’ll resolve the winter when your heart, freezes 

You just want to see me break down
You just want to see me fall 

I’m off the wall, 
In pieces I will thaw.Lately, I’ve been thinking
Lately I've been thinking
Why don’t you love me?
After all the sweating and bleeding
I’ve done for you?
Do you want to see my senses flake?
My vertebrae keep cracking
From the weight of carrying both our names
 
Do you want to see me break down?
Come begging for your blessing?
Worship every word that you say?
By grace in-kind?
 
Because you’re closer now to me
Than I wanted
You’re closer now to me
Than I can change
I don’t want to let you win
I’ll get you inside of my head
And play the game of relationship
In public and private
Make moves like the weather
Darker with every turn
And we’ll resolve the winter when your heart, freezes
 
Behind closed doors
I feel you breathing
From across the hall
I know you’re steady working
Trying to keep yourself calm
To keep yourself from screaming
But your head starts to ache
And you’re wanting for the weekend
You can close your eyes
And pretend you’re the queen of all the crones
But when we get alone (You’re not so clever)
 
But I’ll still break down!
This game is so distressing
Rip me up and tear me to shreds
By force or mind
 
Because you’re closer now to me
Than I wanted
You’re closer now to me
Than I can change
I don’t want to let you win
I’ll get you inside of my head
And play the game of relationship
In public and private
Make moves like the weather
Darker with every turn
And we’ll resolve the winter when your heart, freezes 
 
You just want to see me break down
You just want to see me fall
 
I’m off the wall,
In pieces I will thaw.
