Small Disasters

Rest my head against the wall
Waiting for a call that never came
'Cause time moves too slowly
When you're still holding onto blame
I tried, but can't forget the day
You were reaching for my hand as I touched your face
When your secrets were still safe from me
'Til your eyes gave you away
'Cause we are drowning above the water
In a movie drained of colour
Luckless lovers, with a past that's
Just a string of small disasters
I'd give it all just to feel something real
And now, I see the warning signs
With the benefit of hindsight, I was blind
To the way you'd make me feel so crazy
Just to protect your lies
And all I wanted was the truth
The better part of you that I still see
'Cause love is all we have to give
But you took my best for free
'Cause we are drowning above the water
In a movie drained of colour
Luckless lovers, with a past that's
Just a string of small disasters
I'd give it all just to feel something real
And the one thing that really hurts is
We were so close to being perfect
And I know you'll be okay
And that's what kills me, yeah
'Cause we are drowning above the water
In a movie drained of colour
Luckless lovers, with a past that's
Just a string of small disasters
'Cause we are drowning above the water
In a movie drained of colour
Luckless lovers, with a past that's
Just a string of small disasters
I'd give it all just to feel something real, something real
Oh, I'd give it all just to feel something real
