Last to Leave

Standing in your doorway, I’ve been stranded here so long
Lost inside the notion this is not where I belong
Tonight you're off the table, sleeping sound as I take flight
Reckless as the raindrop on this stormy summer night

With every new beginning, I’ve learned to see the end
It washes out the promise ‘til I can find the truth again
In the stillness of the evening, I question my short sight
How I promised you forever when I could barely clear the night

I’ve wandered lost and loaded on the road that ever ends
Crawling from the wreckage till it’s brought me here again
Should I lose you in the darkness as we struggle to ignite
Bend to keep from breaking, girl, but keep your soul upright
