lyrics

Morning's first light
Your first waking breath
The way to make it all seem ok
To be breathing in the world
The way it looks out your window
The way the light shines bright
In a way that will always make sense

Well, it never made much sense
Since the time that you walked away
You felt regret in how your hand's always shaking
Oh, let that rain fall down
So, let's bring it around
We all fall down...

Dusty sheets and window shades
You're making sense of your everyday
To put in an effort on a chance to leave
But I guess that I just should've stayed
Then waited 25 more years
I fall asleep listening to you breath

The way it looks
The way you shake
The way your hands
How they always shake

Do you wish rain would wash you away?
The sun's absence at night
Makes you think that I'm listening to
Those same sad songs
That you used to fall asleep to
And in someone else's arms
You're in someone else's arms, yeah?

The way the moon rises in your soul
Made it seem like we were still old
But it's true it's all a wash because
None of us ever become that bold
(We'll never be that bold)

Morning's first light
Your first waking breath
The way to wake to life
With folded sheets; a masquerade
A different way to hide your face
A ghost like charm in the dim twilight
I never understood...
With my ghost like charm in the dim twilight
I never understood why...
I guess, I'll never understand why
Your hand's always shake.
