Revolutions

(álbum: Always Lose - 2017)

You look familiar, like a home I used to live in.
I don't recognise the rooms, they might have torn down half the building.
While I find some kind of comfort in the way you call my name,
I will not stay.

Stole a date, you drove across the coast to come and see me.
Always left something behind, so that you always had a reason.
Kept it close enough that I could reminisce the way it's maybe not the same.
It doesn't change.

There's broken glass in all the sand beneath us.
There's always "maybe this time".

If this is love, then I don't wanna be a part of it.
I have seen the way it ends, despite the highs you always start with.
If this is love, then take my name off of your tongue.
I can't handle all the madness, I refuse to be a part of it if it's love.

I called you names. Little names that held a promise.
I tried my best to call you distance but it wasn't what I wanted.
You did your best to keep a guard and so did I,
It's not too late.

There's broken glass in all the sand beneath us.
There's always "why won't you try?"

If this is love, then I don't wanna be a part of it.
I have seen the way it ends, despite the highs you always start with.
If this is love, then take my name off of your tongue.
I can't handle all the madness, I refuse to be a part of it if it's love.

But maybe you can save my soul.
Maybe you could be the half that makes me whole.
Maybe you might not let go.

I found your waves, crashing down upon the coast.
Of everything that I was sure of, every skeleton and ghost.
And in that moment I remember, I was safe, I heard you say
It doesn't have to be this way.

If this is love, then I need you in every part of it.
Every single taste of madness, every high burnt in my heart
If this is love, your name's already on my lips.
For all the miles we are apart, I will fight through every part of this.
If it's love, tear down the walls within my soul.
Cause you are beautiful in ways that I never even known.
If this is love then this is love, if this is love.
