lyrics

Tangled in winters veins
You ran away, you ran away
These bare trees look just like the splinters in my skin

I searched for a long while
In your eyes,
In your smile
Say those words,
I promise I’m ready this time

Your cowardice
It never seemed to falter and
You were just a boy
Looking to become a man
But you won’t find it breaking down like you did

I’ve been grinding my teeth since that
One time at her apartment
My gums were bleeding,
I was shaking- cold sweats
I wasn’t dreaming so I guess it’s all worth it x4

Your cowardice
It never seemed to falter and
You were just a boy
Looking to become a man
But you won’t find it breaking down like you did

Your cowardice
It never seemed to falter and
You were just a boy
Looking to become a man
But you won’t find it breaking down like you did
