Slide Lyrics - Picture House

(maitland) 

I was thinking of you yesterday 

And I swear you were almost here 

You were only around for a second say 

But it seemed like years 

And we called and we cursed like a thousand birds 

And it took me by surprise 

To be left in the search for this rainfall of words 

To bring lazarus to life 

You were talking to me yesterday 

From the sound of a distant place 

Though I seem to be there in some way 

There was no one behind the face 

Then a part of me found 

As I was feeling around 

As you do when you're struck blind 

Now I'm finally free 

I just never believed 

It was emptiness I'd find 

Chorus 

It's why I've let it slide 

A part of me that lived for you just died 

It's why I've let it slide 

You and me we're both on the same ride 

Just on different sides 

I was thinking it through 

Thinking of you 

I'm finally free 

I just never believed 

It was emptiness I'd find 

Chorus
