The Mason Lyrics - Singles - Tossing Copper

I've held on so long, to what I want you to become 

I see that you are not what I dreamed you'd be that's not your fault 

See long ago I made up my mind 

She would be the love of my life 

Now I see ignorance is bliss 

I fell in love with an idea in my head, but that's not who she is 

See I, I'll take a thought 

and I'll let it grow to underneath its weight I am caught 

Then all I saw was a glimpse 

Of who you might be, and I lay down these bricks 

Building walls so lovely and strong 

Theres no way no chance I am wrong 

Our castle stands and I know just where she'll fit 

She'll be with me here in my arms and I'm crazy in love 

With who I think she is 

And when I finally get to see you 

And I latch onto the hope I see in you 

Now I let go, I see that theres a chance 

What I hoped for might actually be so 

But I cannot justify this 

Small suspicion that is slowly creeping in 

That the castle walls are shaken 

I fight the fact maybe I was mistaken 

And I hate what I knew 

That nothing was real in all that I had believed to be true 

And walls came crumbling down 

And all I could think is where is all of that wasted time now 

See long ago I made up my mind 

She would be the love of my life 

Now I see I never really knew you one bit 

See I fell in love with an idea in my head 

But thats not who she is, thats just not who she is 

But thats not who she is
