Lyrics

I wonder how
I wonder how you let me go

Did I make it easy on you?
Did I make it easier to
Hold it together?
To hold it together

Give me time

I hope this
I hope this never comes between us
I hope he never lets me fall back into a rhythm
If I fall back into this hole

You give me time

I hope you break his wall down
Bring it down, and let it crumble over
I hope he goes away
I hope she knows I tried not to use it
He's like an animal, a little small, a little simple
He makes me little bruises
He makes me feel as if I'm new to this

Are you agreeing with me?
And are you breathing?
Let me touch you till you are nothing
Let me hold your heart in my hands

Give me time

And I am
I am a little girl, a stupid girl, with little problems
And I believe the world is caving in and will take me with it
And I believe I'll never grow, I'll never age, and never wilt
Will you remember me in years to come?
Or am I just a seed, and please be fine
Cause I hate this lying all the time

And I would
Kill myself if I thought I'd go somewhere better
But this is it
We are in hell, we are in pain
And I will suffer with you

I hope this never comes between us
I hope he never lets me fall back into a rhythm
If I fall back into this hole

You give me time (yeah)

You give me time
As time will fill the biggest void
And it will stop the bleeding
And time will lick your wounds
And hold you down and stop your breathing
And time will let you see
That I am not the one you want
To spend your happy years with
