lyrics

You’re a passing ship maybe a lighthouse
Maybe nothing a virus a blackout
A lover a friend the best looking martyrs
Start over again

Does it keep getting harder, does it keep getting worse
Does it start out a blessing, does it end up a curse
Well it only stops if you stop too
Darling keep trying, I will try for you

I saw a bird he had a broken wing
But I could still hear him sing

I remember when you told me
Chris there’s a crack in everything
Love is a dangerous topography
You don’t know where the edge is, you find out when you leap

But you know just what tomorrow will bring
Young love grows up we call it suffering
I’m a concussion, I am confusion
Love is the target but it’s always moving

I saw a bird he had a broken wing
And this is what he said to me

Keep your heart on yourself, your girl, and your family
Raise a glass to their health; turn this side to the enemy

And try again cause happiness is a dream you die in
