Think I push too hard I think that's what you said So why would I want to stay Oh no, no, see all of my mistakes Watch the whole thing coming down But I could never wait To wake up to alarms Before it gets that bad Oh no, no, I'm already gone Kicking down the open doors I wish you would say When I f*ck up that it's okay That it's just a scrape All this blood's gonna wash away Sunlight on your face On these too cold December days I'll look past the stains Oh, how they wash, how they wash away What is left to say When I can't count on my words Before the first snow stays Oh no, no, but I will be so far To the north of any place I wish you would say When I f*ck up that it's okay That it's just a scrape All this blood's gonna wash away Sunlight on your face On these too cold December days I'll look past the stains How they wash, how they wash away I wish you would say When I f*ck up that it's okay That it's just a scrape All this blood's gonna wash away Sunlight on your face On these too cold December days I'll look past the stains How they wash, how they wash away Shadows they don't stain They just wash, they just wash away
