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
