The Moment You Get Lonely Lyrics by Exits

Exits

2015

[Verse 1]
They'll tell you love is patient
Convince you love is kind
But love is swallowing a dagger
Letting it drag through your insides
It's something too familiar
But brand new at the same time
And it'll give you tunnel vision
Or be the reason that you're blind

[Pre-Chorus 1]
If love chooses to leave you
Simply show it to the door
No need to kiss it on the lips
Or dry its tears off of the floor
Or you can try to give it shelter
You can wear it on your sleeve like me

[Chorus]
But the moment you get lonely
You are suddenly awarе
Of everything that made you happy
Evеrything that isn't there
The moment you are empty
You can barely feel your heart
Oh, it's hard to reconstruct
When you tear yourself apart like me

[Verse 2]
Love is poorly written
But it's beautifully composed
And it's everything you want
Although it's nothing that you know
It's something you would die for
It's the bloodstains on your clothes
And it's as real as the freckles
That are scattered across your nose

[Pre-Chorus 2]
If love chooses to leave you
You must beg for it to stay
Call it at four in the morning
When you're ten hours away
Or you can pray that it'll find you
Or you can learn to love the chase like me

[Chorus]
But the moment you get lonely
You are suddenly aware
Of everything that made you happy
Everything that isn't there
The moment you are empty
You can barely feel your heart
Oh, it's hard to reconstruct
When you tear yourself apart like me

[Bridge]
It just hurts so much more this time
Than it ever did before
I can still picture his clothing
Lying scarcely on your floor
Carefully placed to cover the footsteps
From the hallway to the door
Now you'll never hear forgiveness
Echo in my vocal cords

[Chorus]
But the moment you get lonely
You are suddenly aware
Of everything that made you happy
Everything that isn't there
The moment you are empty
You can barely feel your heart
Oh, it's hard to reconstruct
When you tear yourself apart like me
