Taylor Ashley - cardinal sin

I used to see the growth in us
And only saw the light in you
How do you feel when i say
Me too me too me too

When light starts to fade
Even blue eyes turn grey
All the feelings when you said
I want to leave you

We're a powder keg, you'll pull the pin
My expectations of you, the beginning of the end
Your restless feet, what eventually did us in
My visceral heart, the cardinal sin

You wanted it all with me once
And i wanted everything in you
This used to be good and true
And the ocean remembers that, too

Go ahead and say your reasons
Remind me of all our treasons
Never meant to stop your dreaming
When the fuck did i become your ceiling

We're a powder keg, you'll pull the pin
My expectations of you, the beginning of the end
Your restless feet, what eventually did us in
My visceral heart, the cardinal sin
Prone to wander
Prone to beauty
You won't forgive me
You won't chose me
You'll refuse me
You lost me
Prone to squander
Prone to leaving
I will find me

At the bottom of a glass
Smoking too many bones
All my vices en masse
Picking up the sticks and stones

They didn't really help that much
I had to get my shit together
Swallowed by grief's touch
I'll learn to float like a feather

I'll drive to the bridge and take off my ring
Lock it up and leave it there, a monument for all to see
It'll be there if you want it, that piece of me
Until i see the ocean again, do you think she still remembers me?

No one gonna hold me now
So i'll hold myself accountable
My own fields, i will plow
My harvest is starting to look bountiful
