Darling you disarm me with a look that fierce
That I'm alarmed it took as long as it did
I don't write you much I know it's a god damn shame
In a detroit moment breathe quiet resistance
To the car alarms and the shouts in the distance
I've given up I know no better way
When all I needed was something to believe in
I have thrown my faith away but my hope grows
And all I needed was something to believe in
I have kept the change alive as I unfold tonight
I've come back home sick with sex on my breath for the last time
I can't stomach the steps I have to take again to sweat you out
I have gone to waste for the last time
So fortunate I'm cursed so tangible it hurts
I just want to make you feel something real enough to stay alive
Approach the world with open eyes
And you will find there's heart in mind
