Undo Me Again
And as the days go by you rub away at me
And peel back the pages of my skin
Soon I shall be raw, sore and broken
As you undo me so you have undone me again
And I am me and you are you and we are nothing
I am broken
And your hands are too small to gather me up so I fall through the cracks of your fingers every day a little more
Then what's left is the black side the dark side
The spiteful Sharpe bits like the leftovers of a roast chicken
Photos of us are in the shadows overcast by clouds
Our hands held strong covered by darkness sat with the what ifs and could of been
So I wait and you wait for the sun to shift and show us the light
But the clouds don't move we never again feel the same
So we are fallen to the low ground, the ground beneath the grounds where people rarely go as they never make it back again
Claw away at the mud cracked on our bodies trying to reach the light
Everyday the we that we were is further away
After a time we close our eyes and forget what was
Until there is nothing left of us
Just two people who used to be in love
And peel back the pages of my skin
Soon I shall be raw, sore and broken
As you undo me so you have undone me again
And I am me and you are you and we are nothing
I am broken
And your hands are too small to gather me up so I fall through the cracks of your fingers every day a little more
Then what's left is the black side the dark side
The spiteful Sharpe bits like the leftovers of a roast chicken
Photos of us are in the shadows overcast by clouds
Our hands held strong covered by darkness sat with the what ifs and could of been
So I wait and you wait for the sun to shift and show us the light
But the clouds don't move we never again feel the same
So we are fallen to the low ground, the ground beneath the grounds where people rarely go as they never make it back again
Claw away at the mud cracked on our bodies trying to reach the light
Everyday the we that we were is further away
After a time we close our eyes and forget what was
Until there is nothing left of us
Just two people who used to be in love
