lyrics

Can I ask this thing of you?
I won't ask for much
To relive a thing or two
Thoughts I may have lost
If I could fix you now and every heart you've touched
In these arms you felt alone
Clued in on what these times would bring

I'll leave, I'll run away
Where I will never be caught
Clearly no choice to follow through
Hope is still not enough

Companion to the cold
Take a long look at me now
Staring at ceiling corners
Light the candles here
Weep as you prove me wrong
I've not yet fallen
I never wanted this to be the prime of my years
Can I ask this thing of you?
Nothing preferred as much

Please just don't ever let me lose
No matter what the cost
An image of the past for you
Through this letterbox
