Only Love (feat. Nate Ruess)
Please keep your distance from me,
I know its hard to believe,
I never wanted to be,
Your only love
I know the sting of pride hurts,
It only makes matters worse,
I never said I would be,
Your only love
Old ships, battle scars,
Silhouettes and skeletons,
The news is on once the clouds are gone,
These are the things that I am not.
Old news, heaven sent,
If heaven wasn't what it is
If all the stars fell from the storm,
Then this is what I've become
I need a new relief,
Dressed as a new belief and then
I could try to be anything or anyone other than
Who I was...
We never hear the dawn,
you wake your roommate up,
So I'm between the sheets,
Wishing for anyone other than us
Please keep your distance from me,
I know its hard to believe,
I never wanted to be,
Your only love
I know the sting of pride hurts,
It only makes matters worse,
I never said I would be,
Your only love
Long walks, phones that die,
Summer in the dead of night.
Some would say our heads are gone,
These are the things we never was.
Long cries, no response,
Silhouettes from all my bones,
Still we keep our heads on wrong,
'Cause these are the things we never was.
I need a new relief
Disguise a new belief, and then,
I could try to be anything or anyone other than
Who I was.
And I would let you sing,
Between your mother's sheets,
And I will slip through the crack of the records that stack;
Your bedroom walls.
Please keep your distance from me,
I know its hard to believe,
I never wanted to be,
Your only love
I know the sting of pride hurts,
It only makes matters worse,
I never said I would be,
Your only love
Please keep your distance from me,
I know its hard to believe,
I never wanted to be,
Your only love
I know the sting of pride hurts,
It only makes matters worse,
I never said I would be,
Your only love
Please keep your distance from me,
I know its hard to believe,
I never wanted to be,
Your only love
I know the sting of pride hurts,
It only makes matters worse,
I never said I would be,
Your only love
We need no proper ending that would mean this meant something...
