lyrics

oh! fortune teller, what's in store for my life?
you’re perfectly prescient and ever so kind
give me all of the reasons you can't be my wife

where do i fit in this perfect design?
you wrote the script, memorized every line
and now you're killing yourself just to prove you're alive

I can carry you to bed, but i won't push you out the door
playing house until the game gets boring

and now you're tearing through the city
you can't blame yourself for trying to be happy
and chasing a life that gives you everything

say sorry, then obsess over every mistake
running away just to stay in the same place
disconnecting my head just to get through the day

the future follows my heels like a ghost
i want to be touched but need to be alone
we're both broken in all of the same ways

come carry me home and leave the light on when you go
fill me up with anything that's golden
cause even if i come up empty, i can't blame myself for trying to be happy
and chasing a life that gives me everything

is it too late for me? am i used up and spent?
i can't give you a baby, but i've still got love left
and i'm too old to chase down fantasies

but when you figure out what you want from me
i'll be three states over and way past apologies
cause we don't belong to who we used to be

i've stared down the edge of the cliff
been swallowed up by the abyss
i’ve held god in my hand
is this all there is?

but i won't let this break me
i can't hate myself for trying to be happy
and building a life that gives me everything

baby i'm ready for something steady
I've been to the brink and I'm never going back
