verse
Honey, when I'm above the trees
I see this for what it is
But now I'm right down in it
Are just things we're dividin' up
Showed you all of my hiding spots
I was dancing when the music stopped
And in the disbelief, I can't face reinvention
I haven't met the new me yet
hook
Past the blood and bruise
Past the curses and cries
Beyond the terror in the nightfall
Haunted by the look in my eyes
That would've loved you for a lifetime
verse
Tell me, when did your winning smile
Begin to look like a smirk?
When did all our lessons start to look like
Weapons pointed at my deepest hurt?
I hope she'll be your beautiful fool
Who takes my spot next to you
Sorry, I can't see facts through all of my fury
You haven't met the new me yet
hook
In our history, across our great divide
There is a glorious sunrise
Dappled with the flickers of light
From the dress I wore at midnight
bridge
I can't make it go away by making you a villain
I guess it's the price I paid for seven years in Heaven
And I pulled your body into mine
Every long cold night, now I get fake niceties
No one teaches you what to do
When a good man hurts you
And you know you hurt him, too
verse
Honey, when I'm above the trees
But now my eyes leak acid rain on the pillow
Where you used to lay your head
After giving you the best I had
Tell me what to give after that
Is the green light of forgiveness
You haven't met the new me yet
And I think she'll give you that
hook
In our history, across our great divide
There is a glorious sunrise
Dappled with the flickers of light
From the dress I wore at midnight
