On My Chest

(album: Watch Over Me (Early Works 2002-2009) - 2021)

It's an abstract place
Where I hold you
And the relief I've felt
Gets confused

And I have cried a couple of times
When I'm wondering about you

And the morning that I found out what had happened
I, I-I

When all it took was a choice
And things could be different now

And I'll never feel
Your face resting on my chest
That vulnerable embrace
Resting on my chest
A shame we had to say
Goodbye before we met
I am forever less

It's a cold walk to waking life
When split course pressure steals the time
Oh and I have been rushed
A panic sucked blushed
And I'm wondering about you

When all it took was a choice
And things could be different now

And I'll never feel
Your face resting on my chest
That vulnerable embrace
Resting on my chest
A shame we had to say
Goodbye before we met
I am forever less

All it took was a choice
Things could be different now
All it took was a choice and the right to choose
You do what you have to do

But I never got to feel...

Your face resting on my chest
That vulnerable embrace
Resting on my chest
A shame we had to say
Goodbye before we ever met
I am forever

It's an abstract place
Where I hold you
