September came
My ribcage bent
They saw me there
Bruised and beaten from my wars
My eyes were swollen from the fall
But there I learned that you cant ever win them all
Looking for arms to hold this weight
I found my way with burned hands
I tried too much and far too much
At least in my mind but Ive still got no clue
Tell me what do I do
All I know is for some reason, darling it hurts with out you
Down down baby
Waiting on the other side
Hesitating never meant to pick a fight
Down down baby
Crossing these arms again
Always waiting laughing
And Im wondering when
Down down baby
if I ran the other way, why you staying?
Youve got the devil on your side
Baby dont you know youre crazy?
You said stay for a day, love
Well please just talk to me.
Looking for arms to give me faith
Bad dates, sit on these hurt hands
Ive tried so much, denied so much
Wasting all my lives and Ive still got no clue
Tell me what do I do.
All I know is for some reason darling it burns without you.
Down down baby
Waiting on the other side
Hesitating, never meant to pick a fight
Down down baby
Crossing these arms again
Always waiting laughing
And Im wondering when
Down down baby
if I ran the other way, why you staying?
Youve got the devil on your side.
December came
My ribcage bent
I saw him there.
Bruised and beaten from his wars
His eyes were swollen from the fall
And there I learned that we were sane, now, after all.
