ben wills - blackbird

Right where you are
Never got you to the middle
And lovers still fold
When they hang on to ghosts
Maybe that's just how it goes
But why are you cold?
Don't know when we got so fickle
Guess lovers still fold
When they're on the ropes
Watching your feet as you go

Learning how to lose
Stringing along
Every time you say those words
I feel lost
But I still say 'em back, back

Blackbird don't give it away
Count all our moments up
Take every fraction of me
Take till you have enough
Blackbird don't give it away
Just take all you need of me

Hands in your jacket
You never do make it easy
Only play the part
If we're drifting too far
Maybe that's just who we are
But why do you give
If you know this ain't what you're needing?
Guess I'll play my part
Keep myself in the dark
Pretending it isn't hard

Learning how to lose
Stringing along
Every time you say those words
I feel lost
But I still say 'em back, back

Blackbird don't give it away
Count all our moments up
Take every fraction of me
Take till you have enough
Blackbird don't give it away
Just take all you need of me
