Ease Your Pain

Half a life--I don’t how I got here
The middle ain’t a very good place to start
You and I just sit around handing over shards of our broken hearts
Half the night I think that you’re an angel
Half the night I think I’m the devil after all
Maybe we’re both just good enough to add a little cushion to the fall
And I will ease your pain
And you can ease mine too
All tangled up in hope and shame amid the midnight blue
But love is red and red is not my name
But tonight you can lay down your head and I will ease your pain
I feel like tourist in my own body
I feel like feel lik I haven’t been home in years
You and I spnd hours trading pieces of our pasts
Just like we’re exchanging souvenirs
And I will ease your pain
And you can ease mine too
All tangled up in hope and shame amid the midnight blue
But love is red and red is not my name
But tonight you can lay down your head and I will ease your pain
Half a life to get to where we’re going
I try too hard to understand
So open up that bottle—it's a beautiful blue night
And your skin feels so good underneath my hands
And I will ease your pain
And you can ease mine too
All tangled up in hope and shame amid the midnight blue
But love is red and red is not my name
But tonight you can lay down your head and I will ease your pain
