"Kept Away" lyrics

Averting your gaze
Going through things
Things that don't suit you like they used to
It's just a phase
We'll be okay

I'm in the back
Covered in trash
Stacking my broken pieces and problems
Keep them in case
And we'll be okay

I wish that I felt that way
I will not fight to hold onto
Everything
When I know everything does not want to be held

I'm in the corner
Watching you sort
Holding a dress like a breath in your throat
Exhale and say
"Hey, I'll be okay"

I am a mourner
Haunting the hallways
Grieving the furniture and the future
Plans that we made
We'll be okay

Some things beg to be
Kept away
So I will not fight to hold onto
Everything
When I know everything does not want to be held

Can't stop the sand slipping through your fingers
Can't catch the ocean in a net
I will not, I will not, I will not beg
I will not beg
To be kept
