If it wasn't for you,
I wouldn't get any sleep
Because you're scared of the dark
And i guess I'll do my part

Those late night drives
Past resting stations
Filled with memories and desperate hallucinations
I refuse to let you drive, because the blue and red lights
Paint you in a beauty that i don't deserve to see

Perfection in the passenger seat

Everything i do is meant for you
And i wont rest till the stress has left your bones
Or at least...

At least not until we're home

And I saw us holding flowers in May
I've never wanted so badly to stay asleep

You were the best bet
I could've taken
From San Diego
To here

I can almost say I got something...

You take off all your clothes
And you turn off all the lights
Cause you're pure and you're small
And you're shy

We fell asleep on the floor
And I don't remember why
But I'll build a castle around you
At least I can promise that I'll try

And what happened to your amulet?
The one you took when you gave me mine.
'Cause I carry it this with me nearly all of the time

And you told me that you loved me,
I saw it in your silhouette,
The light shines bright behind you,
I saw you doing pirouettes

And I'm gonna carry you
To somewhere near the mountains
Somewhere we ain't ever been before
Under the branches

Or maybe...

...maybe on the snow

And I saw us holding flowers in May
I've never wanted so badly to stay asleep

You were the best bet
I could've taken
From San Diego
To here

I can almost say that I got something right

Time will tell if I'm worth yours
I know you're worth mine
You're worth mine
(You're worth mine)

I hope you know the reasons I still write these things
In my mind I see us exchanging rings
And vows…

(Rings and vows)

You in your wedding gown
We’re hung from a string just as fickle as our faith on each other
And it stung just to think of the trickle of pain and bother
This isn’t to say that you’re not worth my time
Or my endless fight
You warm my life
So I stress, you’re mine…

(With or without you, this love…)

...and I’m yours

(…will be my last)

(With or without you)

Everything you do has brought me closer to a time
Where I can sleep a full night soundly and claim this life as mine

(With or without you)

You pulled me to the bottom of the ocean and gave me light
My body gave in under pressure but I kept going out of spite

(With or without you)

Because everything I do is done in anxiety
And I wish that you knew when you say “You look fine to me”

(With or without you)

That the thoughts of you gone are coiled inside of me
And someday these things will cost me my sanity

(With or without you)

...someday these things will cost me my sanity

And I saw us holding flowers in May
I've never wanted so badly to stay asleep

You were the best bet
I could've taken
From San Diego
To here

I can almost say that I got something right
