lyrics

She's the one who tries to slip away. I'm still watching for her to this day. She's been building up like a hurricane. She's just a little act of god. She's been stranded in the road like an accident, breaking all the hearts until they're gone; left us dying when she fled the scene. She's just a little hit and run.

The one who tries to slip away.

Morning comes, washes her dreams away. Each of them were riddled with pain. She says to them, "I can't handle my mistakes. They make me desperate until they're gone. And I can't hold a leaf in my hands without ripping it up until it's gone. Don't know if I can carry on."

She used to feel so deeply, and feel so clean. I'm gonna lay her down beside me, in safety.
