Waiting For Morning To Come

Please excuse me I have difficulty articulating
This despair that is severed and locked in rotation
On a broke record player that deserves more attention
I'll try singing this all away

I spent last night and felt your pity surround me
You'd squeeze my hand tight and then turn away slowly
And I'd lie there like ice in the warmth of your beauty
Waiting for morning to come

Some moments I'll be trapped in my own kind of fog
That'll bury all logic and choke rational thought
For a second I've lost it and I just want it all
To finally come to an end

But I see you and I hold you close under my chin
See that a friendship is better than nothing
I learn that sometimes I'm the one that needs protecting
When I'm waiting for morning to come

Who'd have thought that a character as flawed as mine
Would've burnt through your heart and gone straight to your spine
And paralysed your arms so you just couldn't find
A reason to hold me at all
