Brittle Bond

More or less ten years from now

You'll still be paying off your house

Hoping all the rooms are filled with life there

I never had to call on you

But would you still pick up the phone?

Would you even recognize the number?

My friends think I've got shit together

And fuck my life forever

I won't be the same no-show

Keeping the dependents low

Waiting for the message that you miss me

Yeah, I know I can face it

But it feels so wrong

I'm still packing up the pieces

That you packed up yesterday

And it feels like a relief

That I no longer need to wait

All that we're relying on

Is an old and brittle bond (bond)

It doesn't even feel that bad to me this time

Scott, I'm making any plans ahead of time

Show me your pain and I'll explain you mine

We're not breaking, just fading

Neither leaving nor waiting

I'm still packing up the pieces

That you packed up yesterday

And it feels like a relief

That I no longer need to wait

All that we're relying on

Is an old and brittle bond (bond, bond)

I'm still packing up the pieces

That you packed up yesterday

And it feels like a relief

That I no longer need to wait

All that we're relying on

Is an old and brittle bond (bond)

It doesn't even feel that bad to me this time

It doesn't even feel that bad to me this time

I don't wanna wait

I don't wanna fail

I won't be the same no-show

Keeping the dependents low

I don't wanna wait

I don't wanna fail

I won't be the same no-show

Never feels like coming home
