A Close Call

from Seasons of Limbo by Bomethius

/

lyrics

I thought we had more time than this
Maybe a score of years to find our balance

The day we crossed our lines
The day we said goodbye was hello
To regret and shame and worry

We used to walk about
In conversation’s sound
Exchanging our anxieties

A wound and a gift
It will level and lift
To love and be loved
Is to lose

When we live in fear
Joy and pain feel the same
Both end in tears
Both end in tears

Like a cancer our distance grew
We would visit but I didn’t like you

Liking stuff is easy
And I think I put it first
Forgive me mother
Let’s do something that hurts

A close call or the end
I hope there’s still time to mend
What was broken through misuse

When we live in fear
Joy and pain feel the same
Both end in tears
Both end in tears
