Maybe I favour the lowly side of men
The place where evils a simpler thing to know
Let me hold on, let me explore a piece
of the goodness that evades a man like me

Maybe i should've been resistant from the start,
played around and try to mess with your heart
Maybe it stood to me as a 17 year old
to do such a bad thing to the person i wanna love
I want to rest with
I want to live with
I want to wake up with you

And hold you close to my breast
surprised at how i'm
delirious with
the scent of your breath
and if i'm quick enough
to your wine stained lips
I'll kiss you before
you wake up

The places we reach when we should be asleep
where the skin sheds away in the glare of an honest heart
I wouldn't let me
So what are you doing with me?

I want to rest with
I want to live with
I want to wake up with you

And hold you close to my breast
surprised at how i'm
delirious with
the scent of your breath
and if I'm quick enough
to your wine stained lips
I'll kiss you before
you wake up

The world tilts a shade to the way that you're leaning
My heart opens up and you heal where I'm bleeding
