Always assuming the worst

But you going on

Nonetheless

And theres nothing to

Cushion your heart

Let fall



Letters from further away

Keep pulling me closer

To home

When there's something to

Cushion my callous eyes



And I know that you hope for

Long, good, good-byes

And bracing for forever

Falling in your eyes

In your eyes

Your eyes



Pouring over photographs

I'm living in your letters

Breath 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

There'll always be a place

For you in my heart



So I hit the pavement

It's got to be better

Than waiting

And pushing you far away

Cuz I'm scared

So I'll take my chances

And head on my way on up there

Cuz Eternity to you

Is like falling in love

When you're down
