Pearfish - Someday (Out of the Fray) Lyrics

(Ko taku reo taku ohooho)
(Ko taku reo taku mapihi mauria)

They say that language is my awakening, my resolve
They say that language is the window to my soul

But my words are not what you think
They won't give the truth you seek
So let me get to the bottom of my drink
I'll find your answer there

The more things change the more they stay the same
It's hard to believe that tomorrow could ever follow today

Sleeping at the edge of the bed
Our clothes strung around or necks
Heavy hands were on my head
How did we get here?

A girl told me she loved me such a long time ago
And I just laughed at her and said 'I know' (I know)

And I had a dream and almost every night
The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
So if you need to erase me just to see the light
Then i'll be your sacrifice

You would come home drunk almost every night
Looking at you, burned out my eyes

But I never meant to put you down
I'm sorry that it went this far
But it was easy to come crawling back
And I hate myself for that

(You wouldn't let go)
(It's okay to let go)

Dressing up our wounds after every night
We were descended from warriors but we, couldn't keep up the fight

Nearing the edge of breakdown
Reaping the lies we sowed
You moved on but you kept me around
Why did I stay?

Did you love me?
(Did I even love you?)

I can't even remember when we forgot to care
It wasn't love (no not really), we just liked the idea

So when we go to bed at night
And pain is the only thing on the screen
Grab that remote firmly in your hands
So we can skip to the next scene

(This one's boring, we've seen it ten times before)

Was it all a part of some master plan?
When I walked in the front door and heard the back door slam

Yeah I was drinking bliss just to forget you
Taking pills just to forget you
Screaming in the mirror just to forget you
But now I'm not hungover anymore

(One year sober)

I remember I was thinking about you on my way home
I was drunk, I picked a fight with a flight of stairs and smashed my head on the cobblestone

It was nearing midnight
Why did you hit me up that night?
Why the f*ck did I go to your house that night? (Why the f*ck did you come to my house that night?)
How could I have been so blind? (How could you have been so blind?)

(Someday out of the fray) We won't have to turn away
(Someday out of the fray) We'll can make a change (I know we can)
(Someday)
