lyrics
I hope you're doing well
It's been a long time since our conversation found itself in the same rhyme
I still can't wrap my head around what it means to love the bad in you as deeply as the good I see
And though I'm fine, I could be better
And though I'm fine...
Today I read the letters I wrote to you
There's no way to hold on to you and all those moments where you felt so close to me
I hope you're doing well
You're always on my mind
But the way you walk and the way you talk don't mean it's alright baby
I still can't wrap my head around what it means to feel the thought you press down until it buries me
The look in your eyes makes me weary
The look in your eyes...
Today I read the letters I wrote to you
There's no way to hold on to you and all those moments...
Don't pretend things are still the same
Your words could trap me and I'd never get away again
So go, back to where you belong
The unfinished page, the scattered remains
So go, back to where you belong
Debris on the shore, my broken body lying motionless on the floor
Today I read the letters I wrote to you
There's no way to hold on...
Today I read the letters I wrote to you
There's no way to hold on to you and all those moments where you felt so close to me
It's been a long time since our conversation found itself in the same rhyme
I still can't wrap my head around what it means to love the bad in you as deeply as the good I see
And though I'm fine, I could be better
And though I'm fine...
Today I read the letters I wrote to you
There's no way to hold on to you and all those moments where you felt so close to me
I hope you're doing well
You're always on my mind
But the way you walk and the way you talk don't mean it's alright baby
I still can't wrap my head around what it means to feel the thought you press down until it buries me
The look in your eyes makes me weary
The look in your eyes...
Today I read the letters I wrote to you
There's no way to hold on to you and all those moments...
Don't pretend things are still the same
Your words could trap me and I'd never get away again
So go, back to where you belong
The unfinished page, the scattered remains
So go, back to where you belong
Debris on the shore, my broken body lying motionless on the floor
Today I read the letters I wrote to you
There's no way to hold on...
Today I read the letters I wrote to you
There's no way to hold on to you and all those moments where you felt so close to me
