lyrics
You dropped the ball, I threw it the other way.
I know my place, I know where I should stay.
Separated our ties accidentally,
these aren’t games I’m just trying to get passed this.
I could feel you growing in,
using my skin as the soil.
We planted our seeds out of season
and a tree can’t grow if the sun won’t see it.
You’ve got too many shoes for two feet,
where have you been that’s wearing you so down?
I took too quick to cut my ties
and now the loser is waiting next in line.
I’m leaving in the morning
ignoring a tangled line, try to look alive.
I know my place, I know where I should stay.
Separated our ties accidentally,
these aren’t games I’m just trying to get passed this.
I could feel you growing in,
using my skin as the soil.
We planted our seeds out of season
and a tree can’t grow if the sun won’t see it.
You’ve got too many shoes for two feet,
where have you been that’s wearing you so down?
I took too quick to cut my ties
and now the loser is waiting next in line.
I’m leaving in the morning
ignoring a tangled line, try to look alive.

Draw the curtains, “Bad Magic”. ... more
