Mariel Gesualdi - Laundry Lyrics

You did the laundry
Brought it upstairs
I just ignored it
Like it wasn't there
And I know you hate the mess
But I'm still a little scared
'Cause what if I fold it
Put it back in the drawer
It won't be easy
To walk out the door
And you know it's what I'm thinking
Still I wouldn't dare
I know we're walking on a tightrope
But we just can't let go
Until one of us finally falls
And I know we're picking up the pieces
Fingers cut, both bleeding
It's easier than the unknown
You're all that I know
We say everything
But what we mean
Comforting silence
Now deafening
The longer we ignore it
The harder that it gets
The box in the basement
Keeps reminding me
How quickly I could just
Pack up my things
But I know all I'd be doing
Is changing my address
I know we're walking on a tightrope
But we just can't let go
Until one of us finally falls
I know we're picking up the pieces
Fingers cut, both bleeding
It's easier than the unknown
You're all that I know
Friends turn to more from 18 to 25
Every part of us is written in the skyline
Called me from New York, got on the next plane
Held you close 'cause I didn't want to feel that way
Crying on the R train
And now we're walking on a tightrope
But we just can't let go
Until one of us finally falls
I know we're picking up the pieces
Fingers cut, both bleeding
It's easier than the unknown
You're all that I know
You did the laundry
Brought it upstairs
I just ignored it
Like it wasn't there
And I know you hate the mess
But I'm still a little scared

You did the laundry
Brought it upstairs
I just ignored it
Like it wasn't there
And I know you hate the mess
But I'm still a little scared
'Cause what if I fold it
Put it back in the drawer
It won't be easy
To walk out the door
And you know it's what I'm thinking
Still I wouldn't dare
I know we're walking on a tightrope
But we just can't let go
Until one of us finally falls
And I know we're picking up the pieces
Fingers cut, both bleeding
It's easier than the unknown
You're all that I know
We say everything
But what we mean
Comforting silence
Now deafening
The longer we ignore it
The harder that it gets
The box in the basement
Keeps reminding me
How quickly I could just
Pack up my things
But I know all I'd be doing
Is changing my address
I know we're walking on a tightrope
But we just can't let go
Until one of us finally falls
I know we're picking up the pieces
Fingers cut, both bleeding
It's easier than the unknown
You're all that I know
Friends turn to more from 18 to 25
Every part of us is written in the skyline
Called me from New York, got on the next plane
Held you close 'cause I didn't want to feel that way
Crying on the R train
And now we're walking on a tightrope
But we just can't let go
Until one of us finally falls
I know we're picking up the pieces
Fingers cut, both bleeding
It's easier than the unknown
You're all that I know
You did the laundry
Brought it upstairs
I just ignored it
Like it wasn't there
And I know you hate the mess
But I'm still a little scared
