Can I Borrow A Feeling?

The ground down here is shaking And I never knew your name A part of me has been aching To see what is the same I never thought I'd feel empty I never thought I'd have a doubt I never thought I'd have to relearn Moving on without And now the bugs are crawling into my bed And I'm afraid that they will think I am dead You were the first one I'd ever met Who understood why everything seemed backwards to me And now we can't even talk Which still seems backwards to me But if moving apart Helps you move forward Then maybe one day we'll be in the same place And we'll laugh like we used to every day Over the years we painted a picture I should have asked you first Before I took it down But I'd been watching it for months And it was only getting worse Your easel remained empty I gave it as a gift And then it rotted away in that house And so did your will to live Leave me here I've got a lot to figure out on my own Like better ways to have better days on my own On my own [x2]
