The Gate

(albüm: Falling Into Place - 2013)

And somehow say goodbye
Pretend I'm yawning
The hottest tears in my eyes
I'm just tired, right?
It's an early flight
I had a late night, packing up
Couple files I was backing up
Guess I'm starting acting up
It's hard enough as it is
If I don't go, I can't say that I lived!
And then it will be impossible to forgive myself
I don't try to make a better life for us [?]
Is all I've got! I wish there was another way!
Wishing that the industry was closed and the home,
Cause every other day I set and guessing myself
Asking if I really got it
My worst fear is that you'll ever be out of pocket.
All I ever wanted to be was a bread winner
For everyday I stick around here my chance gets slimmer
My faith gets thinner
And try something that you can't take with you!

Wish I could take your load, take your load
It will be easier to carry this load
Take your load, take your load
It will be easier to carry this load!
That's my plan
But it's boring now, they just call out my name
So my feelings won't change
But it's just no more I can do for us
If my mind wants to stay
Thank God you feel the same
Tell me no tears at the gate!
Know that I'll be back again
Thank God you feel the same
There will be no tears at the gate!

If we don't try then we're not alive
But if I've cut the head off, then we won't survive!
I hop this bond is strong enough to stop the guillotine
Cause I know that you'll be missing on the little things!
And so I missed them, kissing the morning, missed them
I got the work, mister reassurance talks
The massage on my shoulders hurt.
Missed your touch and it's nothing to replace that
Hope you're never stupid enough to think you can forsake that!
Do something you can't take back
I know you feel the same!
I hear that worry in your voice, I don't feel the pain
Promise soon things will be real again
And we can visit all these places that remain!
One thing's for sure is my feelings will never change
This ain't simple but time is something that you can't take with you!

Wish I could take your load, take your load
It will be easier to carry this load
Take your load, take your load
It will be easier to carry this load!
That's my plan
But it's boring now, they just call out my name
So my feelings won't change
But it's just no more I can do for us
If my mind wants to stay
Thank God you feel the same
Tell me no tears at the gate!
Know that I'll be back again
Thank God you feel the same
There will be no tears at the gate!
