39: Neptune

7 0 0
                                    

Pitch black, pale blue

It was a stained glass variation of the truth

And I felt empty handed

You let me set sail with cheap wood

So I patched up every leak that I could

'Til the blame grew too heavy

Stitch by stitch I tear apart

If brokenness is a form of art

I must be a poster child prodigy

Thread by thread I come apart

If brokenness is a work of art

Surely this must be my masterpiece

I'm only honest when it rains

If I time it right the thunder breaks

When I open my mouth

I wanna tell you but I don't know how

I'm only honest when it rains

An open book with a torn out page

And my ink's run out

I wanna love you but I don't know how

I don't know how

No, I don't know how

I don't know how

I wanna love you but I don't know how

I don't know how

I wanna love you but I don't know how

I wanna love you but I don't know how

I wanna love you

Pitch black, pale blue

These wild oceans shake what's left of me loose

Just to hear my cry mercy

A strong wind at my back

So I lift up the only sail that I have

This tired white flag

(White flag)

(White flag)

(White flag)

(White flag)

I'm only honest when it rains

If I time it right the thunder breaks

When I open my mouth

I wanna tell you but I don't know how

I'm only honest when it rains

An open book with a torn out page

And my ink's run out

I wanna love you but I don't know how

Know how

I'm only honest when it rains

(Know how, know how)

If I time it right the thunder breaks

(Know how, know how)

When I open my mouth

(I wanna love you)

I wanna tell you but I don't know how

Know how

I'm only honest when it rains

(Know how, know how)

An open book with a torn out page

(Know how, know how)

And my ink's run out

(I wanna love you)

I wanna love you but I don't know how

I don't know how

I don't know how

I don't know how

I wanna love you but I don't know how

I don't know how

I wanna love you but I don't know how

I wanna love you but I don't know how

I wanna love you
