Guster - Fall In Two lyrics

He smiled to the world But his heart fell below his pain He wanted only arms But he lied to himself again Closing doors and locking locks He looked inside himself Only to find Seeping from his soul Let me fall in two Wide as a river and spread as thin What it could start and no one would finish Bottled up frowning treaties or what they would Knowing not nothing he was the only son Closing doors and locking locks He looked inside himself Only to find Seeping from his soul Let me fall in two Let me fall in two What are you running from? He finds himself away Only have to make the world come find you Try to leave but there is nothing he can do Downcast eyes scrutinize As to what the lead ball hummingbird could not succumb To find what is gone you must burn what is dried And smell the essence of what remains inside And blackened thoughts erase all that is past Before him not knowing where it's coming So you shake him around and scream into his eyes That to drown in the water is to lie by his side Closing doors and locking locks He looked inside himself Only to find Seeping from his soul Let me fall in two
