La Dispute - New Storms For Older Lovers lyrics
[La Dispute - New Storms For Older Lovers lyrics]
"I've come here as a man in shambles
Worn out from begging on my knees
Please, I'm just trying to
Keep my family together
Now, when you saw your lover wore
A ring around her finger
Why didn't you stop?
I have half a mind to make you hurt
To make you bleed to make you suffer
I swear, if you've touched her oh, heaven
Forgive what I would do to you, you monster
Think about your children
They'll never believe what you've done
Listen, I'm begging you, back off
Let me rebuild all the
Things that you shattered
She meant it, I swear that she meant it
She whispered so often
'Husband, I'll always be here with you'
Always, always, always, always, always
Always always is valueless
I wish I'd never heard her speak a word
And I hope you see us
Your wife and your children and I
Buried in the wreckage of your crime
While you're laying down your sins
Softly leaning in to kiss
Your guilt goodnight"
She is mine she is, She is mine
You stole her, somehow tricked her but
We'll survive we will we'll survive
She loves me dearly you'll see
You are blind you are, You are blind
She loves me, dearly loves me, she -
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe
In, breathe in, breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe
In, breathe in, breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe!
He finally paused to take a breath
Then looked down it felt
Like staring into hell
The man was seated in a chair before him
Silent
A statue framed in pain and flesh he thought
"Oh, what more can I say to sway
Him? To make this statue speak?
I swear he's made of stone and I
Am barely stirring up a breeze"
I'm barely stirring up a breeze
And after waiting in the silence
Finally, he finally turned around to leave
Broken and barely through the doorway
Breathing slowly, beating hard
He heard him speak:
"I guess love's a funny thing
The way it fades away without a warning
It doesn't ask to be excused
And when it's gone oh
It's gone! it ain't ever comin' back
There is nothing you can do to save it
To make it breathe the way it did
When you were sliding on the ring
Trust me: It's gone for good
Now there is nothing you can do to stop me
She is happy when she is with me and I am
I am finally alive i'm sorry"
Worn out from begging on my knees
Please, I'm just trying to
Keep my family together
Now, when you saw your lover wore
A ring around her finger
Why didn't you stop?
I have half a mind to make you hurt
To make you bleed to make you suffer
I swear, if you've touched her oh, heaven
Forgive what I would do to you, you monster
Think about your children
They'll never believe what you've done
Listen, I'm begging you, back off
Let me rebuild all the
Things that you shattered
She meant it, I swear that she meant it
She whispered so often
'Husband, I'll always be here with you'
Always, always, always, always, always
Always always is valueless
I wish I'd never heard her speak a word
And I hope you see us
Your wife and your children and I
Buried in the wreckage of your crime
While you're laying down your sins
Softly leaning in to kiss
Your guilt goodnight"
She is mine she is, She is mine
You stole her, somehow tricked her but
We'll survive we will we'll survive
She loves me dearly you'll see
You are blind you are, You are blind
She loves me, dearly loves me, she -
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe
In, breathe in, breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe
In, breathe in, breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe!
