Letters on the Train

(hmmmm-m) I left the letter on the kitchen table,

folded twice To keep the promises I made but couldn't balance right

Now watch the heavy tracking lines of rain across the glass A

slow train going nowhere,

trying to make the hours pass I didn't mean to keep a

secret, just a quiet space To reconcile the person that I was

with this new place

(yeah) It's a strange relief to let it break

To carry only what we choose to make

The distance grows, the duty clears

Admitting what has changed across the years

We draw the boundaries in our heads and call them compromise But

truth is heavy in the chest and harder to disguise This train

is moving, but the stillness is a heavier weight I put the

pen down, finally knowing it is not too late To say I

love you but I cannot live the old design I sign my

name and leave the pieces on the border line

(ahhhh) (it already changed) (it already changed)

It's a strange relief to let it break

To carry only what we choose to make

The distance grows, the duty clears

Admitting what has changed across the years (hmmmm-m)
