Come Up Short

Not long ago you saw your picture in my wallet

I fumbled the bills to keep it hidden

You said stop it... why?

I wanna run

But don't know how you keep on worrying

I'm in your back pocket

Take me out when out when you get curious

I don't wanna start again

Why do we always come up short

When you fold my world

I barely can breathe

Still trapped in the crease

You're wearing out the metaphor

It's so many words

Just say what you mean

Just say it to me.

We've come to talk

Why wont your lips move an inch?

And what's a light without a crack to let it in?

I will be damned if you aren't something I don't miss

And I don't ever fall again

Is it worth the fight?

We're losing light with every move I make

Just wasting time

Deciding where we both can pass the blame

Well it all still feels so strange.

So figure it out

But you know you can't make me wait too long

And I'm too afraid

I wont have something to fall back upon

When everything else goes wrong

Why do we always come up short?

When you fold my world I barely can breathe

Still trapped in the crease

You're wearing out the metaphor

It's so many words just

Say what you mean

Just say it to me

I worked too hard to think that you won't exist,

But it doesn't take much

To make me feel like I will slip up

I will be damned if you aren't something I don't miss

And I dont ever fall again

Grow up and talk

Why wont your lips move an inch

Was I such a fool to write your letter on my wrist?

And I will be damned

If you aren't something I don't miss

And I don't ever fall again
