Ellery - Be Like This Lyrics

Your voice was soft
It always is
That's why I thought
I'd get through this

Your fingertips
Light on my face
Felt like a kiss
That's my mistake

CHORUS:
I was staying up all night
Had every detail memorized
I felt my edges start to slip
I said I wouldn't be like this
Said I wouldn't be like this

I told you once
The braver half
Who I'd become if
You ever left

The less there is
of me to show
The more I wish
you didn't know

CHORUS

You moved too close
For me to think
Straight, and so
I let me sink

It's not your fault
I wanted to
I built the walls
I can't get through

CHORUS

And I apologize for
the way my eyes won't leave the floor
(repeat)

CHORUS
