Safer Skin

Your words lingered on my lips like Your breath when in the cold You captured me in smoke tendrils and Stories that you told It's so unlike you to bring back these memories of old I thought to keep you safer here to some fault of my own You are the wind in tall grass The lighting shift in hours passed Some bones are meant to crack Stuck in the shadows you cast (In the shadows you cast) Rough around the edges from cutting every corner thin And so I became dull to try and give you safer skin I swore I wouldn't feel a thing And I swear I never did I let myself fall out I know that there's a way back in There always is There always is Quantity is quality when days are wearing thin Nothing's ever up to me I just keep breathing in And if you'd save a spot for me I'd tell you everything Anything you want to be But never what you think (yeah) Quantity is quality when days are wearing thin Nothing's ever up to me I just keep breathing in I just keep breathing in
