lyrics

it's been more complicated than anyone can know
it's been a lot of "oh god no"s and "i toldja so"s
and i value that, it's a simple fact, it's something I can hold
we both needed each other to grow

so, take your time, we've both had vacant eyes, a shaded, hazy glaze that gazed at the unknown
and i've wanted to die, but partner, you're living like you're gonna try beat me to it on your own

there's been good times, good lies, good byes, good god damn, pillar to post
some people leave before they've gone, ya can't follow ghosts
how we've aligned, lived and died, as both leeches and hosts
somehow now, we both need you to go

so, take your time, we've both had vacant eyes, a shaded, hazy glaze that gazed at the unknown
and i've wanted to die, but partner, you're living like you're gonna try beat me to it on your own

some people throw all the lights off and watch you
flail around with disgust
and act like they finally got you
while you wait for your eyes to adjust
and i'll hold out my hand through the darkness, to the ends of my reach and my trust
and if empty, like me, it remains, by all means please, just do what you must

we've done our time, let's rest our ancient eyes, and awake one day and gaze toward the unknown
i might still wanna die, but partner, you'll be livin like the sharpest knives that slice so nicely through old stone

there's been good times, good lies, good byes, good god damn, pillar to post
some people leave before they've gone, ya can't follow ghosts
