If I could I would
I'd pull your ribs apart
Like the bars on the jail cell
We'd make a clean break
I'd touch your racing heart
To control those anxieties
To calm you down
To stop you from pacing around

So let me do all the worrying
You know I'm so good at it

Just like skating on broken ice with you
I'm treading lightly
I'm watching my step
This ship has sailed

Our long morning walks
Our shadows stretched out in front of us
The new born sun buring away at our backs
The words were formed and spoken in relief
Just happy that the moments had been filled

So let me do the pretending
We will get better over time

Just like skating on broken ice with you
I'm treading lightly
I'm watching my step
This ship has sailed and we're pushing away

Always a song in your head
Always unfailing, always lovely
But you never bothered to sing

It's like skating on broken ice with you...
