I can't embrace what you left behind
must be the awkward tension makes us blind
I can't entertain cause the lines have dried
you can't claim I never tried
to displace the spaces with different faces
fit between the tightest places
somehow found a way to drain this pool that used to entertain us

As time goes by
the words align
form sentences
that intertwine

It's the first time that I'm speaking my mind on this
I'm not alright but I'm doing fine I guess
and when you leave I can only reminisce
it's finally clear you're not here to clean the mess

Delay in correspondence might make me the type of guy
Who'll exhibit independence but then happily oblige
the suggestion that she makes when you quote mutually decide
to take the clay that you've become and give her free reign to fly

It's the first time that I'm speaking my mind on this
I'm not alright but I'm doing fine I guess
and when you leave I can only reminisce
it's finally clear you're not here to clean the mess

I've burned all the batteries and bridges in this town
how can I recharge without the means to turn around

It's the first time that I'm speaking my mind on this
I'm not alright but I'm doing fine I guess
and when you leave I can only reminisce
it's finally clear you're not here to clean the mess

It's the first time that I'm speaking my mind on this
I'm not alright but I'm doing fine I guess
and when you leave I can only reminisce
it's finally clear you're not here to clean the mess

I'm gonna find a place that I belong to
when I do I'll find a face worth holding onto
