Hand Over Mouth, Over And Over Lyrics & Chords By A Lot Like Birds

[01:17.15]I wish I could, but I can't rest as easy as you.
[01:26.40]I never really could anyway.
[01:29.51]And thoughts of the future make me worry.
[01:44.01]Heart, settle down!
[02:02.80]This isn't your last day.
[02:11.01]You'll wake up tomorrow.
[02:27.41]This bedroom never gets to see the light of day.
[02:30.65]The shades are always drawn completely and it only ever seems to come alive at night.
[02:34.71]I took you here to take you from yourself once.
[02:36.92]And you smiled at me.
[02:38.35]You smiled shamelessly and often then.
[02:40.56]But it wasn't enough.
[02:42.09]I read your thoughts like sifting through your cabinets while you were out of the room.
[02:45.46]I stole every treasured thought that you had
[02:47.46]And left you gutted when I could find no more.
[02:49.61]You had poems written on the roof of your mouth.
[02:51.83]And I had scraped them out with the tip of my tongue
[02:53.90]And spat them onto the floor,
[02:55.74]Where they dried up and blew away.
[02:57.45]And the butterflies in your stomach were all pinned to the skin on the inside.
[03:00.78]And if didn't love you then, I love you now.
[03:03.23]But it's easy to love something when there's pain in its eyes.
[03:08.72]This isn't your last day, you'll wake up tomorrow.
[03:20.63]This isn't your last day, you'll wake up tomorrow.
[03:34.19]So I pull the shades back,
[03:36.07]Let the light pour in through every crack I slammed into the window.
[03:42.68]Will the good parts stay in limbo?
[03:46.44]Why can I only remember when you said you'd love me better if I left?
[03:53.96]And not the way you said, a thousand times, that if I left you'd die?
