Sparrow

 Can’t you see the state of my hands?

So how dare you ask me to carry more than I already am?

‘Cause you weren’t there

And I swear you wouldn’t have made it back

At the very least you’d have done the same as me

 

You don’t really wanna know how bad it went

Even if I say it was an accident

I didn’t know it would be this hard to come clean

If you don’t mind I think I’ll just go to sleep and dream

 

Dream that I was chasing the right thing

I’ll dream there was a good reason

 

Take a look at my heart

And you’ll see that my broken hands weren’t

The only thing torn apart

I went through hell for heaven’s sake

And all that I have to show

Is the overwhelming weight of being alone

 

You don’t really wanna know how bad it went

Even if you’re convinced it was an accident

I didn’t know it would be this hard to come clean

If you don’t mind, I think I’ll just go to sleep and dream

 

Dream that I was chasing the right thing

I’ll dream there was a good reason

 

Was it all a big misunderstanding?

Did I give away my heart for nothing?

No, there has to be a reason or it’s just me to blame

Can you love entirely and still be left lonely?

 

You already know how bad it went

‘Cause I’m wearing it on my sleeve again

Even though not one sparrow can fall to the ground

Without You knowing that it’s going down, it still

I still hit the ground and dream

 

There was a good reason
