Laura Gibson - Five and Thirty lyrics

Were we leaving or arriving When we were waving from the shore? Dragging our futures behind us Until they're too heavy to pull And now I'll cross another river Wade beneath a different bridge Find I'm still chasing your shadow Calling, "Swim back, oh, swim back to me." Here we find ourselves over our heads Five and thirty years, covered in dust Who we were to believe we could say Anything new of love? I thread myself right through your sorrow Cleared a place for light to fall You drew a new face on my body You tell me I terrify you Here we find ourselves over our heads Lives we pulled from the charity box Seems you loved me the most when I said "Love is impossible." So love me, don't let me grow crooked Sell me out or send me home I'll let you break me wide open I'll burn all of my shame for fuel
