[Verse 1] I carried you down past the churches I did it for your own sake You stood by the pier and you looked out At all the lights dancing on the lake And I carried you down to the creek bed Where you stared up at the sun You know we're all beautiful losers You're not the only one [Chorus] These pirouettes I've known since birth These shoes I got for free I know you always wanted more But you won't get it from me [Verse 2] And I carried you out to the garden And we made ourselves a bed You looked at me through the flowers But I don't remember what you said And I carried you here from the ocean Where you tried to sing your song And still, I find it endearing That you always spell my name wrong [Chorus] These pirouettes I've known since birth These shoes I got for free I know you always wanted more But you won't get it from me [Verse 3] And you come home, and you take off your clothes And you smoke in your room, and you talk to the ghosts And you shut the door, and you keep it closed But you always come and go [Jordaan, Meghan, and family] And the ghosts all say that god will save you (9x) And you're not the only one (3x)
