death cab for cutie - diamond and a tether lyrics
pity, take pity on me
because i’m not half the man that i should be
always turning to run
from the people i should not be afraid of
and darling, you should know
that i have fantasies about being alone
it’s like love is a lesson
that i can’t learn
so i make the same mistakes at each familiar turn
i know you can’t hold out forever
waiting on a diamond and a tether
from a boy who won’t swim
who won’t dip his toe in
just to keep you here with him
i’ve got this habit i abhor
when we go out, i’m always watching the door
as if there’s someone i’m going to see
who could out do the things that you do to me
i know you can’t hold out forever
waiting on a diamond and a tether
from a boy who won’t fly
who won’t take to the skies
if he thinks you’re about to say goodbye
pity, take pity on me
because i’m not half the man that i should be
and i don’t blame you, you’ve had enough
with all these empty promises and countless bluffs
i know you can’t hold out forever
waiting on a diamond and a tether
from a boy who won’t jump
when he falls in love
he just stands with his toes on the edge
and he waits for it to disappear again
