L' Exquisite Douleur Lyrics - How We Both Wondrously Perish - Being As An Ocean

Well I can't get too close without wanting all of you 

So I'll settle right into this back seat 

But to be honest, I'm not sure if I can take the solitude 

It's been a long time running 

Since I sighted my first love 

And this mountainside's only getting steeper 

My breath's burning in my lungs 

I wonder when I'm gonna catch a break 

or at least be able to breathe easier 

This drive is telling me to be all that I can't for her 

You're not holding up your end of the bargain, 

but I'll continue to hold up mine 

'Cause I've always been a betting man 

And I'm dying for you to prove me right 

I see the potential you have inside 

Maybe that's why I've continued to fight 

You just can't see all that you are to me 

So I'll just have to learn to be alright 

Without you by my side 

My bed seems so much colder at night 

This chill doesn't seem to be going away 

So I'll acquire a taste for its bite

Give these dry lips words to speak 

A wandering soul, hopeful for living springs 

Searching tirelessly for a well, blue and deep 

From which to pull up strength, something cool to drink 

There are deserts hidden deep inside you and me 

Come now, sit for a while and breathe 

You don't have to say a thing 

Darling, your silence says everything 

You're not holding up your end of the bargain, 

but I'll continue to hold up mine 

'Cause I've always been a betting man 

And I'm just dying for you to prove me right 

I just want to know your story 

Learning, so I may love you complete 

'Cause if we dig deep enough 

There are wells hidden deep inside of you and me

You're not holding up your end of the bargain,
