Dashboard Confessional - Living in Your Letters lyrics

I'm always assuming the worst
But you're going on nonetheless
And there's nothing to cushion
Your heart led fall
Letters from further away keep pulling
Me close to home
And there’s something to cushion
My callous sighs
And I know that you hope for longer good-byes
Embracing for forever and falling
In your eyes in your eyes, your eyes

Pouring over photographs
I'm living in your letters
Breathe deeply from this envelope
It smells like you and I
Can't be without that scent
It's filling me with all you mean to me
To me continually failing these trials
But you stand by me nonetheless
And you won't let me sink
Though I'm begging you i’m begging you
Phone calls from further away
And messages on my machine
But I don't ever tell you
This distance seems terrible
There’s no need to test my
Heart with useless space
These roads go on forever
And there’ll always be a place
For you in my heart

So I'll hit the pavement
It's got to be better than waiting
And pushing you far away ‘cause I'm scared
So I'll take my chances and head
On my way up there
‘Cause turning to you is like falling
In love when you're ten
