Nothing to Give
You talked me to sleep last nightI hadn't felt that sad in yearsYour eyes like glass mistakesThey moved me close to tears
You speak those favourite fablesWhich I'm yet to liveAnd casually confirm my fearsThat I've got nothing to give
I wish I could say that I've got no regretsBut saying that would be one more to pile on my deskI wish I could say I've clung to time like goldBut as you said goodbye I almost died
I take it back, all of it, those names I called myselfThe heroes of my childhood like hardbacks on the shelfI take it back, those promises I made to everyoneI'm falling through a ribbon last, before I'd learn to run
I wish I could say that I've got no regretsBut saying that would be one more to pile on my deskI wish I could say I've clung to time like goldBut as you said goodbye I almost died
