"Free Now" lyrics

"Free Now"

This isn't what you want
It's only how you feel
You openly admit
You're far away from healing
And I hate to pull the plug
But I think I get your deal
Finally know better than
To wait for you back here

And I hope you know I don't think
You're a bad guy, that you're damaged
Took you two months, only two to raise the bar
You're the saddest, but a good kid
Almost loved you, but I didn't
I could laugh now, how we tried to play those parts

I know that you're removed
I can feel it when we talk
You start to let me in
But then you shut it off
And it's half of you that hurts sometimes
The half that I don't get
I swear that I'm not mad at you
But I can't share your bed
Now

And I can imagine
When you go home
Does she follow
Like an echo
Like your shadow
You can try but you can't run

From the truth of
What you both made
That she blew up on a Tuesday
How does pain taste when it melts onto you tongue

It's a pain that I caught you at a bad time
It's a shame that I memorized your outline
You were straight up with me, you were so kind
But I knew what you knew. "Honey great minds"

It was harsh 'cause I lost what I wanted
I was brave when I kissed you in London
We're collateral here, man, and we got it
Hope you find somewhere safe for your baggage

Every page that I wrote, you were on it
Feel you deep in my bones, you're the current
And I showed no restraint, it was something
I was scared up 'til you made me love it

If you find yourself out, if there is a right time
Chances are, I'll be here, we could share a lifeline
If you feel like falling, catch me on the way down
Never been less empty, all I feel is free now

If you find yourself out, if there is a right time
Chances are, I'll be here, we could share a lifeline
If you feel like falling, catch me on the way down
Never been less empty, all I feel is free now
