lyrics

you flicked a lighter
and coughed out a laugh
like you were so intent
on telling me all of the things
you had held back

growing up alone always taught me
no ever gets your jokes
but as the bedframes bent into the past
i started to hear you laugh
now i cant even hear you breathe
but it still feels like you are

all around me
you are all around me
and i wait and i wait
but im always falling apart
and i pray and i cave
clutching my hands and my arms
tell myself that im safe
and i'm not gone for good
its another day the earth still stood

but it never helps
i drink a beer to get me to go to sleep
and pretend everyone's not miserable
and its not because of me

holdin out for the moment
for the bedframes to bend to the past
and i can start to hear you laugh
finally be set free
escape from the anger that is

all around me
you are all around me
and i wait and i wait
but im always falling apart
and i pray and i cave
clutching my hands and my arms
tell myself that im safe
and i'm not gone for good
its another day the earth still stood
