The Cautious End of Things

from Something So Personal by Makeshift Shelters

	/

lyrics

these rooms are so suffocating
the bricks that hold me up
are the bricks that cave me in

ghost and fingers, memories linger
somebody please make them go away

honestly i’ve been picking apart the reasons to not be
on a string anymore
honestly i’ve been moving towards the cautious end of things
why hold on anymore

your palpitations mirror mine
the bricks that you have molded
crumble around your mind

you didn’t mean it, you only said it
you didn’t mean it
please be careful with the things that you don’t understand
please be

honestly i’ve been picking apart the reasons to not be
on a string anymore
honestly i’ve been moving towards the cautious end of things
why hold on anymore

honesty is sickening when you let yourself believe
