Because I Can’t Lyrics by One of Two

Blinds

2020

I guess I should take it from the top
But it's too long a story, and I don't want to wake you up
Your hand on the sheets through the doorway
My suitcase, my shoes as they echo down the staircase
And pictures flicker into life
Between the wet cars and the street lights
Close-ups of what it would be like
I'm right to do this. You'll be fine
I'll tell myself that one more time
Remember us breaking down the door?
Too drunk to find the keys, sleeping tangled on the floor
Remember the morning by thе bedside?
When I couldn't wakе you up and I thought that you had died
The time I slept for two days straight
The short moment you forgot my name
Those small nights dancing with no music on
You're better off now I am gone
And the daylight hours won't seem so long
Sharing a single front row seat
Sharing my coat in the sudden spring time sleet
Laughing with strangers at nothing
Daring thin ice and dark streets, getting lost and getting frozen
Getting angry, getting sad
Growing ugly, going bad
Clinging to each other for dear life
Better I leave without a fight
Out of our minds out of your sight
You'd hold me close and never leave
You'd stare into my eyes and I could never make you see
You'd gnaw at my doubts with your laughter
You'd deafen me with words that I wouldn't know the half of
We'd stay together one more night
We'd pull the curtains, dim the lights
We'd grow old, we'd grow tough, holding hands
And you would never understand
No you would never understand
'Cause I'm not even sure I can
