Flush my system

Your visits getting shorter
Your heart is getting farther from me
Your touch is getting colder
Away somewhere you need to be


You're pulling the trigger and the gun is in my mouth
A subtle annoyance laced with disgust
When you get older and all those girls grow tired of you
You can come find me, I can never hate you

This is not a competition
You will see when I am gone
Can't you see that I am trying?

I made a vow to carry you home
If you fall sick, if you pass out
I made a vow to rescue you
If you're in trouble, if you flake out

If you need to ask
I ache because you ache

What was it you could not tell me?
Why are there cuts on your arm?
What is it you run away from?
Why have all the clocks stopped?

And it hurts all the time when you don't return my calls
And you haven't got the time to remember how it was

If you're running out of breath
And your building's burning down
You can jump, I will catch you
Nothing's changed, I am still here

With heavy hands and an absent mind
Did I blow your candle out?
With shortened words and a lack of time
Am I ever on your mind?

Was I cruel and never there?
Nothing to rely on
Was our romance a black hole?
You kept the better half than me

Well if you really wanted to know
Well no the earth's not moved for me since
I wish I could've given you lightness
The lightness that you deserve

And they say time is a healer
And time will look after you
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait
Come over




GOODBYE :(
