lyrics

Close the Cracks

Your hands on my shoulders
maybe I was just too young
when I promised I would carry
all the things that were too heavy
I had carried anything for you
I had promised anything to you

Where you led, I followed
never knew that I was hoping
you would heal, you would seal
all the gaps that isolated me
for all these years
for all these years

Now I know, I know
in your house there’s just no room for me
so I won’t, I won’t
put my heart at your doorstep again

Living for the moments
few and far between
when you open up your heart to show
you also care for me

I always felt
I wanted too much
for years I tried to tell myself
that what you got to give will be enough -
what you got to give will be enough.

but now your words won’t close the cracks
that open up with every time you don’t react.
You don’t write back.

And I don’t want to care anymore,
pick myself up from the floor,
brush off the dust, do an encore.

When I know, I know
in your house there’s just no room for me
so I won’t, I won’t
put my heart at your doorstep again

I had been so lonely
if you hadn’t walked my dreams
and I know I’ll break my heart
but a life needs to be lived

so I try to get my feet on the ground
turn my back on your house
it’s high time I get away

I can change

Cause I know, I know
in your house there’s just no room for me
so I won’t, I won’t
put my heart at your doorstep again
