lyrics

I've been keeping my heart closed
I should let it out sometimes
you should be the one who sees
I should be the one not so sorry

remember you in that black dress
jealousy and peace of mind
kept you at an arm's length then
now you couldn't pay me not to fight

but time takes all the reasons
and the seasons laid to blame
and ain't it funny, honey
in the moment,
you don't feel the same

might be a lie
what we lost and what we gained
if the world was burnin' baby
you,
you'd just fan the flames

holding onto long goodbyes
keeping up with all my tricks
did you find a new way to rise?
did you find a new man to call you his?

always wanting more than my part
asking questions to the dark
are you coming home soon?
never knowing why we do those things we do

& I know I made it hard
holding pieces of my heart
asking you to form the shards
into a brand new start

but time takes all the reasons
and the seasons laid to blame
and ain't it funny, honey
in the moment,
you don't feel the same

might be a lie
what we lost and what we gained
if the world was burnin' baby
you,
you'd just fan the flames.
