Cope

I’ll keep a piece of my heart vacant When your return from vacation Forgive me, and I’ll see you soon Chicago in September makes me miss you most Finding solace in a basement With my shirt soaked to the bone I know I was dead wrong, but don’t kill me off You say that it’s progress But I think its just a crutch I’ll keep a piece of my heart vacant When you return from vacation *Forget* me, and I’ll see you soon You’re my highest high and lowest low, I know I’d give anything for you to make me feel whole again Don’t apologize (cause we’re all fucked up) Just accept the paradox I’ll catch you when you really need it most I’m still learning how to cope Been swimming in cement so I can make a mark Some days its still more than I can take I’ve pulled my threads apart Our bodies came untangled, felt a colder breeze Painting pictures in my head of how I thought that it should be My eyes burn from looking at you But I still can see right straight through Take that leap, I’m your parachute I’m still learning how to cope With your ghost
