To Dust Lyrics by Ben Krieger

2022

[Verse 1]
Yes, I called out your name
But you just didn't care
I drove for miles and miles and wound up just falling on the floor
I guess I acted tame
It's just you scare me when you're there
'Cause I've practiced speeches on speeches to walls that don't end all in tears
[Pre-Chorus]
Laughter and crowding her for hours turned to dust
'Cause my decision settled in her blood
[Chorus]
I guess we've learned what you'd call "just a little"
But I'd say that little counts for quite a lot
I promise it's the truth that I'm committal
But I get why you can't trust me from the start
I mean, It's worse than bad
I set the bar
Then broke your heart
The worst part is that I still have mine
But it has no use if yours died
[Verse 2]
It's called self-sabotage
You know, it murdered all the odds
Of you trusting in me and me trusting that you'll call the shots
I'm scared that you won't try
I mean, why would you fucking try?
Am I really selfish enough to share feelings I tortured you by
[Pre-Chorus]
Laughter and crowding her for hours turned to dust
'Cause my decision settled in her blood
[Chorus]
I guess we've learned what you'd call "just a little"
But I'd say that little counts for quite a lot
I promise it's the truth that I'm committal
But I get why you can't trust me from the start
I mean, It's worse than bad
I set the bar
Then broke your heart
The worst part is that I still have mine
But it has no use if you're
[Bridge]
Gone from my life
Forever this time
You know I thought what I did would be good in the end
They say don't fix what ain't broke
I thought that line was a joke
But I never would've tried if I knew it meant that you'd despise me forever
[Chorus]
But now you're saying that we've fixed what broke a little
And I think that little counts more than you know
The truth is I'm just scared that I'd belittle
The idea of a future months ago
I mean, it's worse than bad
I set the bar
The broke your heart
The worst part is that I still have mine
But it has no use if yours died
