Love My Love You've Never Let Me Down Lyrics


Introvert Love My Love You've Never Let Me Down


The skeletons in my closet remind me of home
Lately I’ve been dancing to their breaking bones when I’m alone
Now I’m just waiting for their screams to quiet down
These days not even ghosts will move into this town.
The only lace to escape is the local bar
With the stench of dying men and the taste of cigars
I sit alone in the back, eyes on the sunset,
Windows clouded with breath, pointing towards the West.
Bartender walks over, hands wrapped around a glass
Filled with ice cubes and a few shots of Jack
He puts it to my face with a look full of hope
Says a soft prayer and finishes it in one gulp.
He says, “Learning to love is a curious endeavor
I remember the first time, it’s in my heart forever.
I’d give my wife my life, but she knows well as I
No woman can love you like a starry night sky”

When I woke up it looked like God was at my window
I peaked my head out and kissed the first cloud that I saw.
There are sparrows that sit on my sill
And sing until the night stands perfectly still
Enough to know that the ripples weren’t real
Still enough to shatter the stars splattered and conceal
Behind a gray mask of clouds harder than steel
And when it finally comes off, it comes to be revealed
There’s an ocean up there we haven’t learned to swim
Head’s under the water, jumped right into the deep end.
If you let me sink my heart would’ve been contents
You should’ve let me drown but you saved me the embarrassment.
I was a dead man; you were an angel
Ever since I’ve looked at this through slightly different angles
It should be easy but my mind’s been torn
Should I thank you or wish that you’d never been born?

I was a dead man, I was a dead man. I was…
I was a dead man, I was a dead man. I was…
