The Mess

[Verse 1: Thom Powers and Alisa Xayalith]
There’s nothing here but the distance
There’s nothing here but the mess
If you’d have shut up you’d have heard it
You could have put it to rest
I am swelling and eager
I am the raging sea
I have had it up to here now
I’m so tired of your needs

[Chorus: Thom Powers and Alisa Xayalith]
And how does it feel to be on the fault-line
And how do we heal now we’re on the decline
Cause it’s a hell of a long way to fall just to learn to get up
And I’m not gonna forgive you for all of the things that you’ve done

[Verse 2: Thom Powers, Alisa Xayalith and Both]
There’s nothing here but indifference
There’s nothing here but the stress
These walls are stained with your moments
Something you want to confess?
You at the point of attachment
And all the things you believe
There’s nothing left in this place but a reason to leave

[Chorus: Thom Powers and Alisa Xayalith]
And how does it feel to be on the fault line
And how do we heal now we’re on the decline
Cause it’s a hell of a long way to fall just to learn to get up
And I am not gonna forgive you for all of the things that you've done

[Bridge: Alisa Xayalith and Both]
How does it feel to be on the fault line
And how do we heal now we’re on the decline
Cause it’s a hell of a long way to fall just to learn to get up
And I just can't forgive you, I just can't forgive you
I know that you mean it, I know you believe that it’s true
So fuck it, ruin it all for a means to get through
Cause it’s a hell of a long way to fall just to learn to get up
Because this love, this love, this love was never enough
