Red Goodbye - Nothing To Come Back To lyrics

Hope is the match Is the flame That lights your wick It burns you down Tragic bound To your dynamite stick It blows a hole Breaks the stone Of your foundation There's a highway now In and out Of your one time mountain So should I sink with this ship That tried to cross your ocean The captain I miss I'm sailing your lips How I wish they would open Every word I've said has been like bread Rested on your tongue and tasted Rip my words apart with your teeth Only swallow what you think you need There is no chorus in our song We've been writing the verse as we just move along We've got nothing to come back to I play the chords and your words are the lyrics Over and over, we go delirious We've got nothing to come back to I spent so long watching you bloom Before you withered I ran to get water for you But you fell to winter Thought you were strong Thought you'd hold on But your roots had hardened Found out I was wrong That you belonged In someone else's garden You are my only reason to write Ten thousand words on a blank page But a full head at night
