Incomplete Lyrics
I breathe in slow to compose myself
But the bleeding heart I left on the shelf
Started speeding now, beating half to death
'Cause you're here and you're all mine
So I press my lips down to your neck
And I stay there and I reconnect
Bravery, I've been trying to be perfect
It can wait for a while
Scared of the hope in my head
It's been making me sweat, but it turns out
You're here with your head on my chest
I should've guessed
The world will turn and we'll both will learn how to be
To be incomplete
I breathe out now and we fall back in
Just like before we can re-begin
Let your arms push slow up against my skin
Let it all feel just right
Gone is the emptiness
We just take what's best and move on
All of the heart gets left
I should of guessed
The world will turn and we'll both will learn how to be
To be incomplete
This here now, it's where we touch down
You and me, let's be incomplete
How we ever go without?
I don't know but it looks like we made it again
Tell me you'll never look down, down
And the world will turn and we'll grow
We'll learn how to be
To be incom
I don't wanna look down
I don't want us to break up in the cloud
All I want is to stay us to, stay with you now
I don't wanna look down
I don't want us to break up in the cloud
All I want is to stay us, to stay with you now
And the world will turn and we'll both will learn how to be
To be incomplete
This here now, it's where we touch down
You and me let's be incomplete
But the bleeding heart I left on the shelf
Started speeding now, beating half to death
'Cause you're here and you're all mine
And I stay there and I reconnect
Bravery, I've been trying to be perfect
It can wait for a while
It's been making me sweat, but it turns out
You're here with your head on my chest
I should've guessed
To be incomplete
Just like before we can re-begin
Let your arms push slow up against my skin
Let it all feel just right
We just take what's best and move on
All of the heart gets left
I should of guessed
To be incomplete
This here now, it's where we touch down
You and me, let's be incomplete
I don't know but it looks like we made it again
Tell me you'll never look down, down
We'll learn how to be
To be incom
I don't want us to break up in the cloud
All I want is to stay us to, stay with you now
I don't want us to break up in the cloud
All I want is to stay us, to stay with you now
To be incomplete
This here now, it's where we touch down
You and me let's be incomplete

I'm falling in love with James Bay with every song I've heard as every song just connects with me. I'm in a tough spot in my life. About a year ago my first girlfriend and I broke up after about a year together and the song Let It Go by him got me through a tough breakup. Now as a senior in high school, Hold Back the River has connected with me as many of my closest friends that I've gone through life with for the last 10 years are going away to school and we are all going our separate ways. Need the Sun to Break and Incomplete have been getting me through recently. I'm gonna spare details, but I met a girl over the summer that I was just infatuated with but she was in a relationship. I was in love from afar for many months and I couldn't really move on to someone else. Need the Sun you Break was the song that got me through there as it just sort of claimed what I had been struggling with. Recently she and her SO broke up and I knew the sun had broken and my chance had come, only to be shut down rather quickly and be told that the feelings were one way. Incomplete has been the song to carry me through an incredibly depressed portion of my life. I know the lyrics imply the song is about a couple who is okay being imperfect and incomplete but the chorus always gets to me and I always hear that no matter what happens: the world is turning, we are growing, and we are incomplete. This is really the song that's gotten me through and will continue to get me through. I'm incomplete and that's okay.
It's really telling you to accept circumstances and move on in life without defining a relationship with hope and optimism, no malice.
