The Mess We're In

(album: The Kite String Tangle Presents: In A Desperate Moment - 2018)

Come just a little closer
Stay just a little longer
Oh, you know I'd stay forever if I could
You felt the same last night
Your fingers curled around mine
When I leave it never feels like it should

As we're getting all the meaning one another more
Feeling close enough to raise our voices
Slam the door
Look at the mess we've made
Oh look at the mess we're in
I know we used to make time
I know that we've let this slip
There's beauty in total breakdown
There's life behind each shadow
It's hard to hear right now
But I never will let you go

Count the scars in your psyche
As I press on them lightly
I see myself in different stories from your past
And it feels so familiar laying down by the river
Holding on so tightly as if to make this last

As we're getting all the meaning one another more
Feeling close enough to raise our voices
Slam the door
Look at the mess we've made
Oh look at the mess we're in
I know we used to make time
I know that we've let this slip
There's beauty in total breakdown
There's life behind each shadow
It's hard to hear right now
But I never will let you go

I never will let you go
I never will let you go

Look at the mess we've made
Oh look at the mess we're in
I know we used to make time
I know that we've let this slip
There's beauty in total breakdown
There's life behind each shadow
It's hard to hear right now
But I never will let you go
