You laid your head on my chest
Handed me your hair tie and then said
"Here. It's yours if you want it
A little piece of me to keep in your pocket."
So I took it
And I promised
To protect it
And then, of course, I lost it
My friends say it's almost poetic
How something so simple
Foreshadowed our ending
Well, maybe there's a reason for this moment
Maybe it's alright that I am broken
I wish that I could speed up how I'm healing
And that they made some kind of Novocaine for feelings
I wish that I could put some kind of curfew
On the ways that I have hurt you
But I guess that in the meantime
I'll make peace with the demons in my own mind
You kissed my cheek when I said
"I'd give you the life you imagined."
But, honey, I just lied to be honest
I always preferred myself to what you wanted
But maybe there's a reason for this moment
Maybe it's alright that I am broken
I wish that I could speed up how I'm healing
And that they made some kind of Novocaine for feelings
I wish that I could put some kind of curfew
On the ways that I have hurt you
But I guess that in the meantime
I'll make peace with the demons in my own mind
Lately I've been feeling
That everything I think I need
Just doesn't seem to bring me peace
My thoughts, they get the best of me
Maybe there's a reason for this moment
Maybe it's alright that I am broken
I wish that I could speed up how I'm healing
And that they made some kind of Novocaine for feelings
I wish that I could put some kind of curfew
On the ways that I have hurt you
But I guess that in the meantime
I'll make peace with the demons in my own mind
