And maybe my shell's dissolved,
But that doesn't mean that I've evolved
Into something better
We've been traveling like wolves
And I see on your face
All the times we've pushed and pulled
Open doors are shacks that we once raided
Skeletons of where we sat and waited
Since I've started drinking,
I've seen you started thinking
Maybe I've let you down,
You don't belong on this battleground
But I'll tell you, when you let down your guard, baby,
I'll be around
And maybe you are desire
But that doesn't mean that you'll inspire
Anything too good
All these days I've been dying
Your lips won't let mine say,
"Baby, you know that I've been trying"
These clouds are just dreams forged while we were sleeping
The gray ones are dreams we're failing to be keeping
Since I've started drinking,
I've seen you started thinking
Maybe I've let you down,
You don't belong on this battleground
Even if you're tired of me, baby,
I'll be around
I wish you had a sister
She'd say "Listen, mister,
You love that girl like she's your last,
And I don't care what's in your past,
You hold that girl and don't let go,
Cause she'll love you more than you will ever know"
And I'm sorry I've been shaky
I think we both know our hearts are breaking
Just don't go forsaking me
I'll clear off this battle ground
We can go hunting, or just lie down
I love you even more when the pack is not around
Because the lives we led on paper
Bled out onto the floor
And I know that I'll feel safer
When you take away my breath once more
Since I've started drinking
I've seen you started thinking
Maybe I've let you down,
You don't belong on this battleground
So, let's just head home, you know
That I'll be around
