dead selves - leaving kent lyrics

Loading...

i’ve spent the last few months storming jerusalem
earning the holes in my shoes
this winter came up on me quicker than last year’s
but i know that that’s no excuse

i had so much to lose, not least of all you
i shouldn’t pretend that i’m staying when i know that isn’t true
i’ve been trying to leave kent so long
i might as well have just been passing through

i’ve been preoccupied stripping the mountainside
i keep forgetting to call
don’t you wait up for me, i won’t be home
without something to hang on the wall

i don’t remember it all, but i rеmember enough
likе that old myth that i loved, with the ending i might’ve made up
and i can’t find the line between the parts that were mine
and the parts meant to tell us what we should have done

i live in sets of months, chasing oblivion
burning the red in my eye
these winters keep coming on later and later
this summer refuses to die

and i still act surprised, i still shift the blame
like when i lock the door and you don’t break it down all our breaking’s the same
but if you find where i hid, if you don’t just forget
i swear i can love you better than this
it was the best i could be, to love like i did
a burrowing insect who digs ‘til it’s freezing
and wonders when the warm air went away
