you never said you loved me, no that’s too cliche
you never said to leave but that i couldn’t stay
you always said the rain would wash away
the mistakes that we made but i still see the
red ink markings and the criss cross scratches
you never sewed me up you only taped on the patches
and i look at you from across the mattress
you’ve started up a fire and used up all the matches
we’re fighting with our words and i say it doesn’t hurt
but it feels a lot like daggers
i’m falling into bed, well at least that i’m not dead
none of this even matters
cuz you used up all of our matches
and we’re burning down to ashes
hanging on your words like the edge of a cliff
and i might just let go cause i’ve been known to quit
the snow is falling like leaves in autumn
and it feels a little early for all of this dying
i’m cold throughout my body and i’m frozen to the core
i hold up a glass but you just look at the floor
and i look at you from across the table
you have a pen and paper and you’re writing i’m not stable
we’re fighting with our eyes, and we act like we’re surprised
that they feel a lot like daggers
i’m falling out of love, well at least that i’m enough
none of this even matters
cuz you used up all of our matches
and we’re burning down to ashes
to ashes
to ashes
cuz you used up all of our matches
and we’re burning down to ashes
to ashes
to ashes
