Small Disasters

[Verse 1]

Rest my head against the wall

Waitin' for a call that never came

'Cause time moves so slowly

When you're still holding on to blame

I tried but can't forget the day

You were reachin' for my hand as I touched your face

When your secrets were still safe from me

Till your eyes gave you away

[Chorus]

'Cause we are drowning above the water

In a movie drained of colour

Luckless lovers with a past that's

Just a string of small disasters

I'd give it all just to feel somethin' real

[Verse 2]

And now I see the warning signs

With the benefit of hindsight, I was blind

To the way you'd make me feel so crazy

Just to protect your lies

And all I wanted was the truth

The better part of you that I still see

'Cause love is all we have to give

But you took my best for free

[Chorus]

'Cause we are drowning above the water

In a movie drained of colour

Luckless lovers with a past that's

Just a string of small disasters

I'd give it all just to feel something real

[Bridge]

And the one thing that really hurts is

We were so close to being perfect

And I know you'll be okay

And that's what kills me, yeah

[Chorus]

'Cause we are drowning above the water

In a movie drained of colour

Luckless lovers with a past that's

Just a string of small disasters

'Cause we are drowning above the water

In a movie drained of colour

Luckless lovers with a past that's

Just a string of small disasters

I'd give it all just to feel somethin' real, somethin' real

Oh, I'd give it all just to feel somethin' real
