about

Sometimes you demonize those who hurt you. Sometimes you're the demon.

lyrics

All I want is to hold you one last time
Is that so much to ask? Oh, I don't think it could possibly be
Meet your eyes, be enchanted by your rhyme
And let all of it go as I throw myself into the sea
Oh, you were always right
And I was so blind
You kept all of your faith in me
Even as I spat words unkind
And writing this doesn't begin
To make up for the things that I did
But I'm already on my way
And if I'm strong enough, I'll get there today

Oh, siren
Promise me you'll be there when I need
Oh, siren
Warnings be damned, I'll take no heed
You held me as I was healing
You took this toy soldier and gave it feeling
And I can't
Seem to pull myself up off my knees

You should know how I feel about the past
I know I've changed a lot, I wonder if you might still be the same
The water's rising and the ocean seems so vast
But I fight the tide alone because there's nobody else left to blame
I didn't mean to be
What made us fall apart
I know you just wanted to believe
But both of us were doomed from the start
And saying this doesn't undo
All the awful things I put you through
But I'll be there again and again
'Cause I love you now like I loved you then

Oh, siren
Promise me you'll be there when I need
Oh, siren
Warnings be damned, I'll take no heed
Of every lie I denied
I can't believe this one came from wounded pride
And so I ran
Gun in hand and blinded by my greed

So here I go on the open road
Afraid of what I'm like when I'm alone
But if you're at the end, I'll gladly march to the sea
And the two of us can live floating free
