lyrics

Am I ready for peace like I’m ready for war
Making fists like I’m made for forgetting
Cause most of my wounds weren’t inflicted by you
I’m the worst, I’d lose you and you’d let me

If love’s coming in and love’s going out
Why do I labour to weigh and to count
Our own little circles no start and no end
Where have you been?
I’d like to know
Where are my friends?

The world spins around, I’m stuck in this town
Just a ghost of the man that I used to be
Will someone recall these words that I’ve scrawled
Can you measure a man by his enemies?

If love’s coming in and love’s going out
Why do I labour to weigh and to count
Our own little circles no start and no end
Where have you been?
I’d like to know
Where are my friends?

Like ships in the dark
Together apart
Alone isn’t hard
It’s untenable for me

I’m coming to terms but I don’t like the verbs
I can talk a good walk to my detriment
I’m broken enough to forget that I’m loved
I can’t wrap my whole heart around the sentiment

Like ships in the night
Or birds lost in flight
It’s not wrong, it’s not right
It’s calamitous to me
