"Fray" lyrics

I wash the clothing that I wore
Some things you just don't ever throw away
Stitched up the holes that weren't there before
I snipped the threads, I scrubbed the stains, yeah I broke my man in two
I did things I didn't know I could do
I patched him up and myself too
'Cause there's a life we get back to

If I start to unravel
And then I start to fray
I gotta keep it together
Or I won't be okay
'Cause there are strings that bind us
And ones that tie us down
It's as tiny as a needle in a stack of hay
But bigger than a house
If I let it fray

There are days the house is hushed
I move around all the furniture
That's what I do when times are tough
It's a blessing, it's a curse no matter what the hurting was
Ooh, it barely pierced the skin
Inside I fall apart at the seams
'Cause there's a life I want back in

Then I start to unravel
And then I start to fray
I gotta keep it together
In my own little way
'Cause there are strings that bind us
And ones that tie us down
It's as tiny as a needle in a stack of hay
But bigger than a house
If I let it fray

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la

I wash the clothing that I wore
Some things I just can't ever throw away
Stitched up the holes that weren't there before
I snipped the threads, I scrubbed the stains

Then we start to unravel
And then we start to pray
We gotta keep it together
In our own little way
'Cause there are things that bind us
And ones that tear us down
It's as tiny as a needle in a stack of hay
But bigger than a house
If I let it fray
If I let it fray
If I let it fray
