The Comfort Of Small Defeats

And I watch from a distance you move unlike anything I have ever seen,

I’d like to fall asleep calmly next to you safe in your care to guide me home.

But most nights I am filled with superstition and fear

Kiss your hair and knock on wood.

And it never

Feels like enough,

No matter how far we go

It never feels like enough.

I know you are not right

But you are perfect for me.

Everything is fine.

Everything is falling apart.

Everything is fine.

Everything is falling apart.

I cut myself at thoughts of losing you,

Shake myself awake at dreams of dying alone,

I worry about the slightest discomfort,

I worry about anything could take me from you.

But we are the dreamers

We are the dreamers

The ones who despite the odds shot for the stars

And I will hold on to everything we have built

Because you are the reason

That I know I will make it through the night

You are the reason

That I know I will make it through,

I will make it through
