lyrics

Only a handful of times have I had to write your name
Did I miss out or was I ashamed
There is a feeling in the freedom of a sigh
What a beautiful lie
Might you have stayed, I don’t know how much I would try
I know better than to pry
But 15 years of ideas of you and I gone
With no goodbye

Might you have needed to be set free
Might you need to be alone
Might you have wanted to call on me
Might you have me to call your own

Growing older we find it harder than it was
We live in the strangest world
Half way through the earth, through the core
Where were you before
Hereditary disease trekking on an unknown trail
Followed by a fear hidden under a veil
Somethings pulling on my sleeve to turn around
but I’m not
Bound to anything I might not maybe couldn’t trust
It’s a bullet in the rearview mirror
Breathing in light of such a tail
I hear the nightingale

Might you have needed to be set free
Might you need to be alone
Might you have wanted to call on me
Might you have me to call your own

Might you have needed to be set free
Might you need to be alone
Might you have wanted to call on me
Might you have me to call your own

And it’s all wrong
We got it all wrong
He said nothing’s wrong
So we just go along
No one’s wrong
Wondering whats wrong
Well somethings wrong

Might you have needed to be set free
Might you need to be alone
Might you have wanted to call on me
Might you have me to call your own
