Matthew Ryan - Everybody Always Leaves lyrics

rate me

I remember sometimes

When you never came home

How i crawled inside

Those sad and lovely bones

That you left behind

Rarely held nor seen

Everybody always

Everybody always leaves

It was a third world town

In the great dead north

I felt a wedding bell shiver

Folded hands divorced

From a prayer for the permanent

Warmer tears on my sleeve

Everybody always

Everybody always leaves

Sometimes i can’t remember nothing

Sometimes it shadows everything

Some sundays it’s as loud as thunder

In the morning when the telephone rings

Clearer days in some distant forecast

Dark days in this present past

In the blur of some phantom widescreen

I’ll let go of what i never had

She took a mouthful of rain

With a gutter full of pills

She wrote i handled the pain

But it’s the hope that kills

So take care of yourself

And don’t worry about me

Cause everybody always

Everybody always leaves

Sometimes i can’t remember nothing

Sometimes it shadows everything

Some sundays it’s as loud as thunder

In the morning when the telephone rings

Clearer days in some distant forecast

Dark days in this present past

In the blur of some phantom widescreen… i’ll let go of what i never had

Don’t leave… don’t leave… i’ll never understand… don’t leave
