about

This is not about a person

lyrics

I've been waiting so long for you to see
that you are beholden to me

You made an empty promise
but it's one that you will keep

So be what you said you would be

"It's better to be grounded than to fly too close to the sun"
That mantra won't suffice
We'll have to find a new one

For without love
There is no heartache
But I cannot sleep alone

And I'm alright
But I've been better
The heaviest I've ever been is with you on my mind

There was a light that kept knocking at my door
But I turned away; it wasn't you

Gone for forty years
And 21 I've spent alone
Give me a lie
Give me a light

You wouldn't feel this grounded if you flew closer to the sun
Although you are imperfect, I think your time has come

For without love
There is no heartache
But I cannot sleep alone
And I'm alright
But to be honest
The heaviest I've ever been is with you on my mind

Where will you be
Where will you be
Where will you be when the regret sets in?
For without love
There is no heartache
But I cannot sleep alone
And I'm alright
But to be honest
The heaviest I've ever been is with you on my mind
