hayley coupon – let me be lyrics

let me be
it seems i can’t help you anymore
the tricks i used to know
fall through cracks in the floorboards
and the days will grow shorter and colder too
your face grows pale and sharp
your eyes narrow and blue
i sit on the bed, perched at the end
you rushed downstairs
see how the light just peers through
from up there

well, they said
save some of this for yourself
so i tried
i kept it all b-ttoned up
so it wouldn’t bruise my pride
but bruised men like you they only know just one thing
the callous and the heart
the nettle and the sting

leave me alone
can’t you see that i’m busy
hands full of soap
wash away the scent that you gave me
the sun didn’t shine
it left all these scars
i guess we were as different
as pianos and guitars
so you tune your strings one way
i’ll hit mine in some other
a cautionary tale
while you were cautioning me of another

you said my body was a blessing
and my voice was a curse
but when you gave me these marks
you couldn’t tell which was worse
won’t you turn away slowly
this is no longer yours to see
maybe it was never mine
but i’ll claim it eventually
when you call for me one day
i won’t come
though there may be tears in my eyes
i won’t follow, i won’t run
and your cries may be loud now
but one day will soften
and i will still think of you
every so often
i sit on the edge
my feet hit the floor
so i leave you be
seems i can’t help you anymore

well, they said
save some of this for yourself
so i tried
i kept it all b-ttoned up
so it wouldn’t bruise my pride
bruised men like you they only know just one thing
the callous and the heart
the nettle and the sting
