Live Up

(album: I Clung To You Hoping We'd Both Drown - 2011)

Sunshine came to every corner, peeking through the shades
It doesn't have to fade, no, nothing has to change
So I can go to sleep, finally

And I, I know nothing 'bout the past
All I know is that it's passed
So I can't blame you for that

And you, you're sleeping in my bed
And you've lied to me again
I can smell it on your breath

So live up, live up, live up
To the name you've been making for yourself
I know it can be hell
But you need to think about your health

And you know, you know, you know, you know
We haven't spoken since Christmas Eve
But out of the gifts under the tree
Your voice was the best that I'd received

I just miss you, miss you, miss you
More that I ever cared to explain
Or admit to your face, before you'd gone away

And you, all you left me was your blood
When you showed me what you've done
In a desperate search for love

And I, I know nothing 'bout the past
All I know is that it's passed
And it's never coming back
So we can go to sleep, finally, finally
