A Year From Now Lyrics by The Cardboard Swords

The Cardboard Swords

2015

Maybe like a year from now
It won’t be so hard
Once this wound has scabbed over
And this scab turns to a scar
The scar tissue will take its turn
And harden around your heart
And after all this
I’ll still hold you in the highest of regard
And if you’re at the bar
I’ll try to buy you a drink
And ask hey girl what do you think
About getting out of here
And going somewhere where it is warm the entire year?
Where you can show off that skin
That you’re so good at fitting in
I could tell you that you’re the prettiest
But I’m pretty sure you won’t be interested
But there is not a place I’d rather be
Maybe like 5 days from now
We could have the best time we’ve ever had
If it weren’t for my advanced abilities
To fuck shit up so bad
I am still less of a man
Than times this week I’ve held your hand
I’d ask you again to forgive me
But I already know you can’t
I just wish I could show you
All the lessons I have learned with no you
I have half the mind to blow through
Your front door to tell you no
Two people should be together
Quite like this
And it would be unfortunate
If I saw you in public
Because I made myself a stupid promise
That I wouldn’t try to buy you a drink
And ask hey girl what do you think
About getting out of here
And going somewhere where it is warm the entire year?
Where you can show off that skin
That you’re so good at fitting in
I could tell you that you’re the prettiest
But I’m pretty sure you won’t be interested
Now there’s still not a place I’d rather be
