A wilting vine, a wilting truth.
It's inside me, your tangled noose.
I knew that you fly away. So, why not leave me with a feather?
A souvenir for letting go of who I am.
I will float like a dead leaf.
Take my hand, weight me down to the concrete.
I tried to build up my borders to keep out the devil that's perched on my shoulder.
I tried to tear down my senses, but all that I did was reveal picket fences.
I open my eyes wide, I watch as the time crawls by.
I'm feeling fine I'm feeling brave.
I'm comfortable laying in this grave.
I'm feeling much better now, but I guess it's cause I have not been sober.
I know I'm not growing up, I'm just giving in while I'm getting older.
Set me free, I will float like a dead leaf.
Take my hand, weight me down to the concrete.
I will float, weight me down.
Take my hand, won't you set me free?
