He offered her the world, but came up short[00:04:23]

The nastiest of storms made him settle on a city with a port[00:04:23]

He watched ships sail by in the middle of July[00:04:23]

He wrote notes on paper boats, sat and waited for replies[00:04:23]

Hope floats, even when it's on fire[00:04:23]

Especially when it's on fire, but the smoke makes him tired[00:04:23]

Took a blade to the chest like he was opening a body bag[00:04:23]

"Sir he's still alive in there" well Christ then, remove the tag[00:04:23]

What's it say? It says "Fold along the lines[00:04:23]

And set me free," not on fire, cause oftentimes[00:04:23]

When I set myself free, this empty[00:04:23]

Bag of a body tends to get burned in effigy[00:04:23]

I've lost the energy to fight off the flames[00:04:23]

I blow it off like it's all just a game, all the same[00:04:23]

Wish he wouldn't write himself out of the picture[00:04:23]

It's a beautiful lotion that you got[00:04:23]

When there's someone there to share it with you[00:04:23]

This is why she can't have nice things[00:04:23]

He was too caught up in work to sign for the nice deliveries that life brings[00:04:23]

Now he can't tell if he's dead or not[00:04:23]

He said, "I bet I am, and I can prove it." She said "you better not"[00:04:23]

This is why she can't have nice things[00:04:23]

Because talk is cheap and it was poor communication[00:04:23]

All he wanted to say, on the dock that day[00:04:23]

Was "I love you, and I'm sorry," but instead, he just waved[00:04:23]

Good bye, and he cried, love[00:04:23]

So much he watched the waters rise up[00:04:23]

It must have been a changing of the tides, but I've come to assume[00:04:23]

It was the changing of a mind, once upon a blood moon[00:04:23]

They skimmed rocks for the whole day[00:04:23]

He imagined he was throwin' rotten parts of himself that broke away[00:04:23]

So he couldn't stop, fascinated by the way they skip up top[00:04:23]

Give up and then drop, he sank with them[00:04:23]

They convened on the rock bottom and made a decision[00:04:23]

They could never raise children, not like this[00:04:23]

Not like people who make babies on purpose[00:04:23]

That's when he came to the surface, fully intending[00:04:23]

To be so strong in his resolve, 'til all of it dissolves[00:04:23]

Slippin' through his pruny fingers like this could've been ours[00:04:23]

But this is to the offers that can't be followed through with[00:04:23]

The water works, the leaky faucet still lost fluids[00:04:23]

To the current of the stream that'll always push you from me[00:04:23]

To the reoccurring dream that makes reality less ugly[00:04:23]

In a picturesque setting, where the world looks airbrushed[00:04:23]

Needless to say, words failed us[00:04:23]

On the dock that day, all I wanted to say[00:04:23]

Was "I love you, and I'm sorry," but instead, I just waved[00:04:23]

Good bye, and I cried, love[00:04:23]

So much I watched the waters rise up[00:04:23]

It must have been a changing of the tides, that was breaking up our lives[00:04:23]

It was a water raged wrinkling time[00:04:23]

Yessir, minds are made for the changing, but mine's been deterioratin'[00:04:23]

Like the bluffs in the shoreline, where I've been waitin' too exhale[00:04:23]

Since the summer when we watched every last one of our friends set sail[00:04:23]

And I was the only livin' boy left in Providence[00:04:23]

Collecting death certificates from the rest of my documents[00:04:23]

Just for origami purposes, I gave 'em to the ocean[00:04:23]

But hey, look at me, I'm great at foldin'[00:04:23]

Guess I'll just do this the rest of my life[00:04:23]

It's got to do with lots of lovin', and it ain't nothin' nice[00:04:23]

This is why she can't have nice things[00:04:23]

He was too caught up in work to sign for the nice deliveries that life brings[00:04:23]

This is why she can't have nice things[00:04:23]

Because talk is cheap and it was poor communication[00:04:23]

This is why she can't have nice things[00:04:23]

He set fire to the paper boat sonatas he's been writin'[00:04:23]

And this is why, I assume the moon's bleeding[00:04:23]

And why there wasn't any blood left in the rock he was squeezing[00:04:23]
