New Storms for Older Lovers - La Dispute

I've come here as a man in shambles

Worn out from begging on my knees

Please, I'm just trying to keep my family together

Now, when you saw your lover wore a ring around her finger

Why didn't you stop

I have half a mind to make you hurt

To make you bleed, to make you suffer

I swear if you've touched her

Oh, heaven forgive what I would do to you

You monster

Think about your children

They'll never believe what you've done

Listen, I am begging you, back off

Let me rebuild the things you've shattered

She meant it

I swear that she meant it

She whispered so often

Husband, I'll always be here with you

But always, always, always, always, always, always

Always is valueless

I wish I'd never heard her speak a word

And I hope you see us

Your wife and your children and I

Buried in the wreckage of your crime

While you're laying down your sins

Softly leaning in to kiss your guilt goodnight

She is mine, she is

She is mine

You stole her, somehow tricked her

But we'll survive, we will

We'll survive

She loves me dearly

You'll see

You are blind, you are

You are blind

She loves me dearly

Loves me she

Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in

Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in

Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in

Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in, breathe

He finally paused to take a breathe and then looked down

It felt like staring into hell

The man was seated in a chair before him silent

A statue framed in pain and flesh

He thought, what more can I say to sway him

To make the statue speak

I swear he's made of stone and I am barely stirring up breeze

I'm barely stirring up a breeze

And after waiting in the silence

Finally turned around to leave

Broken and barely through the doorway

Breathing slowly, beating hard

He heard him speak

I guess love's a funny thing

The way it fades away without a warning

It doesn't ask to be excused

And when it's gone, oh it's gone

It ain't ever coming back

There is nothing you can do to save it

To make it breathe the way it did

When you were sliding on the ring

Trust me, it's gone for good

Now there is nothing you can do stop me

She is happy when she is with me

And I am, I am finally alive

I'm sorry
