You count all the letters I ever wrote
One better count the words
I ever spoke
I ain't tethered to a now
Run away and I'll choke
How do you measure the end of a rope
Well I like to imagine
That love's like an atom
If you split one up
You won't know what happened
But your plants won't grow
And you're flattened.
You can count all the bridges
I ever burned
And digits will tell you
What you need to learn
It takes frigates to haul off
The hurt the hurt that I churned
How do you measure the ash in an urn
When we speak of the kindness
The windows go blindless
And the one lie that blinds us is
The only tie that binds us
Maybe we'll leave all the darkness behind us.
Well, I like to imagine
That love's like an atom
If you split one up
You won't know what happened
But your plants won't grow
And you're flattened.
You can count all the letters I ever wrote
One better count the words I ever spoke.
I am tethered to a now in a way that I choke
How do you measure the end of a rope.
