Morning Clothes

Get out of your mourning clothes
You can’t stay in bed all day
Even though I want to
I know I said that I needed this
But it seems good things must always slip away
And as for the necessities that I buried in my bones
They’re not that far away
In a place that’s not my home

I won’t forget how we always said that we needed this
And I know that I always promised
That through thick and thin we would remain friends
And in spite of this, you know I never meant to be dishonest

When I was swimming in those dark waters
You pulled me from that lake
I swear you meant the world to me
Even when I made such an awful mess of things
So now comes the consequence that I know we both must face
(Of our actions)
And just because something is just
Doesn’t mean that it feels fair

I won’t forget how we always said that we needed this
I know that I always promised
That through thick and thin we would remain friends
And in spite of this, you know I never meant to be dishonest

And as time goes on, will we both forget
And carry on like I never existed?
(You know I never meant to be dishonest)
And as time goes on, will we both forget?
(Don’t you dare stay that far from me)
(Don’t you dare stay that far from me)
And carry on like I never existed
(Don’t you dare stay that far from me)
(Don’t you dare)
(Don’t you dare, dare)
Don’t you dare stay that far from me
Don’t you dare stay that far from me
Don’t you dare stay that far from me
Don’t you dare
Don’t you dare, dare
