lyrics

Ties

I wish you knew how you felt
When you spoke with me about wearing your last name
We’re not breaking these ties now
But ties are all that I’ve learned to change

I’ll crawl out of my grave now
When you lay down your crooked blade
There were always contradictions
And I was left calling out your name

I was waiting for you
You were trapped in the fold
I was waiting for you
But the ties got hold

Wish you could believe me my friend
I could take it all away
No sense in playing pretend
I could liberate the pain

I was waiting for you
You were trapped in the fold
I was waiting for you
But the ties got hold

Tracing our woven history
Reaching into sinking ground
A martyr or a mystery
Nothing left to bind us now

Another weight has fallen to the ground

All that we’re gaining
All that we’re losing now

I wish you knew how you felt
When I wanted you that way

I wish you knew how you felt
When I loved you that way
