Why should I have to wait for love Why should I have to prove what I'm made of It's an endless masquerade It's a pointless favor if you reduce me to a crawl And once a month, by the clock, you call It's been so long, where you at, and what's your job That's always how you start This is the tea and the tear apart I'm singing with all my heart For the ones that you ripped apart I'll cut you with all the shards That you left me of my heart And you think it's great, we're sitting here, it's getting late Your partner calls, he's too cold, he needs your coat You ask him why he called and he says darling No one at the party knows where the hell you are Turn to me, brown eyes shining endlessly Asking me, does my body still block moonbeams Well of course they do You're the one who told me that everything turned blue Is there a secret to your heart Is there something that I should've made sense of You ask, what the hell went wrong There started being things I couldn't ask you anymore And if we're so ultra dark death bed, whatever How come we laugh so hard when we're together This is the tea and the tear apart I'm singing with all my heart For the ones that you ripped apart I'll cut you with all the shards I'm holding on to the piece that you left me of my heart And I'm forming a new feeling that will never tear apart My body is a vessel and just now it's waking up If you someday wanna find me you will find me in my car And that emptiness you're feeling is why it never starts My body is a vessel and just now it's waking up Someday everything is gonna greet you where you are Just don't leave your future in the cold dead arms of god You can't spend all eternity feeling so lost If we just sit here holding under these policeman lights, We'll never have to hear all these cops and parents fight We'll pretend you and I seized the night one last time One last time
