HOW TO DISMANTLE A LIFE

Counting the years, counting the tears I’ve spent waiting on another you to finally bloom before me I don’t know why I didn’t try wondering if we just didn’t fit instead of shrinking myself oh so small ? too many feelings in my heart to hold them all You saw the mess, but never saw the art… I was too much for you from the start How to dismantle a life: Just take the first step out the door and keep going All those unbearable nights are all that I need for my heart to gladly show me the way, yay, yay, yay show me the way out Everyone guessed, everyone tested us in subtle ways of saying “hey, you clearly made a mistake” You’ll never change, I’ll never change, let’s agree that neither of us should We’re pretty good… for someone else Aren’t we glad we didn’t make a baby, and that all we had was the silverware, the gravy boat, the sheets There’s nothing much we care to keep How to dismantle a life: Just take the first step out the door and keep going All those unbearable nights are all that I need for my heart to gladly show me the way, show me the way out Show me the way I knew that day would come when I’d jump without any doubt How to dismantle a life: Just take the first step out the door and keep going out of a house made of lies ‘cause after the winds of truth start a-blowin’ all the pieces start to fly the walls tumble down all around on their own and suddenly you see the sky the light that you need for your heart to gladly show you the way, yay, yay, yay show you the way, yay, yay, yay show you the way, yay, yay, yay show you the way out
