White Lies - Nothing To Give lyrics

rate me

You talked me to sleep last night

I hadn't left that sad in years

Your eyes like glass mistakes

They moved me close to tears

You speak those favourite fables

Which I am yet to live

And Casually confirm my fears

That I've got nothing to give

I wish I could say

That I've got no regrets

But saying that would be one more

To pile on my desk

I wish I could say I've clung to time like gold

bust as you said goodbye I almost died

I take it back all of it

Those names I called myself

Like hardbacks on the shelf

I take it back those promises

I made to everyone

I'm falling through a ribbon last

Before I'd learn to run

I wish I could say

That I've got no regrets

But saying that would be one more

To pile on my desk

I wish I could say I've clung to time like gold

bust as you said goodbye I almost died
