lyrics

Can't you just admit that you were
Can't we just have one moment of

Can't you just admit that you were
If I never said anything you could never take it the wrong way
Can't we just have one moment of
If I never take anything there's never a chance I won't pay
I won't pay

There's a hole, an imperfection where the smoke creeps in
It chokes my lungs because it fills the spaces where the air had been
If we were to speak with honesty
I can't breathe, I can't see

Can't you just admit that you were
If I never said anything you could never take it the wrong way
Can't we just have one moment of
If I never take anything there's never a chance I won't pay
I won't pay

There you are and here I am in a doorway stance
Arms are crossed, eyes are locking in a threshold dance
If we were to speak with honesty
I can't breathe, I can't see

Slipping the string of the kite out
Defying the gravity
Watching the world from the lighthouse
Get swallowed by the sea

Can't you just admit that you were
Can't we just have one moment of
