Sean McPherson - So It Goes lyrics

It wasn't enough, it just wasn't enough We made eyes just to disconnect lives And I just want her to lie with me tonight Lie to me tonight and say it's going to be alright We used to sleep like a braid Now the both of us are tugging at a thread We hoping it don't break Painstaking to stay but we both know the fray Caught at a funeral, wondering where June went I was a student of you in your moonlit movement Bed sheets used to croon the sweetest music Now it's usually bruises A routine that's set in sediment, argument Then s** and settlement And nothing hurts worse than falling out of it You try to cover up but you know it's counterfeit I tried to cover up Rust encrusted heron must give up the sparrow Trust I'm stuck with wearing this arrow in my lung A hook in my gut leaking marrow in the dust Looking for my steel tipped dove And that's how the real lose love I'm on the brink just waiting for a shove And when it comes I'll shrug And spread my arms in a brand new suit While the birds shoot a 21 gun salute She drew me bloody, ruined me monthly June she starts to hug me September says she loves me December's sky was ugly May Day she say she's leaving After we made it through the rainy season June she's back with two reasons Why I should let her back Bed the ax, Medusa's trying to take the scepter back I can't accept her after that After a winter spent in discontent for this lament And when she left I felt free With a piece of me missing Easy to fall in but unseasonably frost bitten But who am I kidding? It's not meant for me I'm too selfish with mine and terrible at timing Climbing up mountains Doubting if I'll ever find that level ground They says it's better when the love is lost than never found Caught in a storm cloud, honestly worn out First we fight then you storm out It wasn't enough, it just wasn't enough // I gave time but it wasn't enough My heart and my spine, it wasn't enough My bark, my roots, my leaves, my tree, it wasn't enough And so it goes, the v-e is out of place with the l-o And now I run around town with a busted up mouth Busted up jaw, and some busted up ribs A cut from a saw, something's got to give Must be the way I live, must be just me Rusty old tree in the center of the cemetery Fighting off teeth And she wonders why I get no sleep And she wonders why the willows weep I remember all that pillow speak Now every night I drink myself to finding new shelter Cause everyday is so cold, but you know how that goes And so it goes
