after the fall

Lyrics

take on the weight of a happy ending, you can't bear it all til you stop pretending, wake up and see how imperfect we are, i lash out at times when i've got no right to, you shut down and close out the ones who love you, we're flesh and bone, made of muscle and scars. in a perfect love there's always something wrong, in a world defined by moments it's the long term, the slow burn, and i can't try to justify at all, love, will you be here after the fall?, blacktop the hum of the motor running, five hours to go and my stomach turning, white lines and guides only take you so far, no storybook ever reaches this part, true love plus life leads to heavy hearts, just hold tight to me and we'll see what we are, in a perfect love there's always something wrong, in a world defined by moments it's the long term, the slow burn, and i can't try to justify at all, love, will you be here after the fall?
