My Weakness

From the album Buy One, Get One Free by Jeremy Gratton

loneliness is flaunting her dress, she is cold and bitter
says she misses how we intertwined, and how we fit together

these thoughts just help remind her of her flesh and mortal sins
she writes them off as a sort of weakness, and hates me for all of them

you can tell them i’m never coming home
you can tell them i’d rather be alone…
that their eyes don’t see what’s inside of me

she says the dreams aren’t enough to sustain her mind
she can feel my inconvenient energy near her sometimes

if sadness and emptiness is what you’ve made of it,
then perhaps it is time… for us to close this connection
i’ll see you in the next life…

you can tell them i’m never coming home
you can tell them i’d rather be alone…
that their eyes don’t see what’s inside of me

you can tell them i’m never coming home
you can tell them i’d rather be alone…
that their eyes don’t see what’s inside of me
