If U Don'T Know

And even if 
You don’t know for sure
I’m willing to 
Let you go 

She said
I want to know where you are
I want to go where you aren’t 

I paint the city a lovely tale
I string together 
The pieces of those
Left behind

And even though it’s wrong
I leave you my flaws 
Awkward designs
In a royal song

And even if 
You don’t know for sure
I’m willing to 
Let you go 

She said 
I want to know where you are
I want to go where you aren’t 

My mother of worries
A passage of suicide
Qualms for care
My days for lease 
My hours for rent

Haven’t you heard
Grace won’t choose your soul
But the choice is yours
Spend it before time mends you old
