Kill the Horns

Sorry for the way he died
I hoped that you would try to find
An easy way to sympathise
But "I was wrong, you were right"

Dodge all the context and roll out the tide
These broken wings will never fly
Every melody a hymn
Every word a chance to sing
Hard as it is to try

Never really thought about the way it felt
When it began this wasn't my plan
Disregard my honesty
Take in only what you need

Taking in the details
Look at the facts
This wasn't really built to last
Roll up the carpets and kill the horns
'Cause I don't want this anymore

Slow down
Don't get me wrong
There were moments when I felt it too
Moments are fleeting
They don't tell the truth
It's not me this time, it's you

Sorry for the way it died
Better this than a lie
