Cavetown - Banana Bread lyrics

You’re falling further down but I’ve
Got you by a thread
I wrap the cord around my arms until
My hands start to turn red
But it’s not enough
It won’t be enough to save you

She’s so in love with all the
Things I hate most about myself
I’m so in love with all the
Sounds she makes when she smiles
And well, it’s a little tough
To put acorn shells on ice sheets
Without breaking through
And flooding the whole town

I hope you’re alright
I didn’t wanna wake up last night
’Cause I quite liked the dream I
Had of holding your hand
It’s funny how slowly time goes when my
Thoughts have been racin' all this time

It’s alright to feel a little bit
Of darkness now and then
I know I’ve said it once but I
Still tell myself again and again
You’ll never be enough, but what is enough?
You’re selfless isn’t that enough?

Banana bread before I go to bed'll
Put the bees to sleep
Otherwise they’d buzz and sting my lungs
All night inside of me
Just wait a little while
You don’t cry too much
You know that when you smile
The sun shines more gently
