[Instrumental Intro]


[Verse 1]

You're fallin' further down but I've got you by a thread

I wrap the cord around my arms until my hands start to turn red

But it's not enough, it won't be enough to save you, hmm


[Verse 2]

She's so in love with all the things I hate most about myself

I'm so in love with all the sounds she makes when she smiles

And well, it's a little tough, to put conker shells on ice sheets

Without breaking through, and floodin' the whole town


[Bridge]

I hope you're alright

I didn't wanna wake up last night

'Cause I quite liked the dream I had of holdin' your hand

It's funny how slowly time goes when my thoughts have been racin' all this time


[Verse 3]

It's alright to feel a little bit of darkness now and then

I know I've said it once but I still tell myself again and again

"You'll never be enough", but what is enough?

You're selfless, isn't that enough?


[Verse 4]

Banana bread before I go to bed'll put the bees to sleep

Otherwise they'd buzz and sting my lungs all night inside of me

Just wait a little while, you don't cry too much

You know that when you smile, the sun shines more gently


[Instrumental Outro]
