Jasper Sloan Yip Postcard
I saw the panic that made your heart race
I watched all of the color fall from you face
You told me that loneliness is just a state
You told me that loneliness will go, go away
So baby sleep easy for me, for just tonight
All of a sudden my energy bleeds
On to all of my fingers like the ink from a cheap magazine
My hands are so dirty and they won't wash clean
Of all of these empty people that I have been
So baby sleep easy for me, so I can do the same
Baby I'm sorry, but I can't change the way
That I wake up feeling every single day
Well maybe tomorrow, when I'm okay
And everything is perfect, in every single way
We could be happy if I could change
But I don't think that I'm able, at least not today
So baby sleep easy
My heart is a postcard that I couldn't send
So I stuffed it inside of my pocket instead
Now it's burning and it won't last long
So I hope you find it before it's gone
Baby believe me, this time
Baby I'm sorry, but I'm so damn afraid
That after I've left I'll wish that I had stayed
And you won't be with me, you'll be so far away
And you won't come home for 300 days
My heart is a postcard that I don't want to send
I'd rather just give it to you instead
Baby believe me, this time
Baby I'm sorry, but I can't change the way
That I wake up feeling every single day
So maybe tomorrow, when I'm okay
And everything is perfect, in every single way
We could be happy if I could change
But I don't think that I'm able, at least not today
Baby believe me
