lyrics

I step out on the balcony
Memories surrounding me...I can see my breath
It’s all blue in the morning light
How did we get here
The years flew like a dream before my eyes

And I ain’t ever let you fear
And I ain’t ever let you down
And you ain’t ever let me near
So who was it who lead us here
I could never understand
It was never meant to be mine
We can’t start over now
We start under, and we climb

We start under, and we climb

Now we’re so much older than those days
When I always told her nothing would change
Running in the shoulder, turning that corner
Long as I was sober it was okay
I was thinking over something to say
Lookin for some closure, it was too late
Trying to console her, losin my composure
We were gettin colder every day

We start under, and we climb

Diggin in a hollow that we couldn’t climb out
Always on the road and I could never lie down
Should’ve guessed you would get tired by now
Fucked up, I’m fucked up whenever I’m round
Maybe I’m lost girl or maybe I’m found
Was it your faith girl or was it my doubt
Never been as sober as I’m feelin right now
Singing what I couldn’t ever fucking write down

And I wonder where you are today
The city looks so far away...In my head
I don’t think I understood it then
But now it’s so clear
We were only ever all we could’ve been

Baby you were doin your best
You would take me back when I cried
But you would love me just a little less
A little less every time
I could never understand
It was never meant to be mine
We can’t start over now
We start under, and we climb

We start under, and we climb
