I Lost Her

There's a hole in my heart which you used to get your air

It won't beat again for at least another year

You cut it out yourself so you won't suffocate in there

Your patience is losing to your fear

I lost her

When collecting angels come

I will rush to find your prayers

They're buried in the closet under the stairs

Under boxes of my dreams and the clutter of

My fears my selfishness is probably why they're here and

I kept digging my own grave

I'm close to 30 miles deep

I can taste the other side and it isn't pretty and

I left my lover in a bottle and

I threw it out to sea as soon as she left my fingertips

I prayed she come back to me come back to me baby

I lost her

I lost her

I lost her

I lost her

I lost her

I lost her

I lost her

I will never stitch the hole you cut

In hopes that you will return to me

I will work to be a man yes you will see yes

I will work to be your man yes you will see
