Brandi Carlile - A War With Time

I don't remember the timeline Just December and the eastern skyline It was just my time to go It wasn't even a cold night Disappointed in the northern nights I always thought there'd be snow 400 people on a broken wheel When the plane touched down in a concrete minefield I guess we all made it out okay Following the streets to a sliver of blue You can lose the sky and it can lose you too But you get a little lost to find your way I'm living in a war with time I could still reach out and touch you And I wish I didn't know the things I know I'm standing in an open door None of it was overrated And I'm never gonna wanna let you go But I want you to go Don't even ask me, just go I don't remember the faces Just the anger and the haunted places So alive I could taste it on the rain Even the roaches come from somewhere Leaving a stain where the angels fell In the city where no one knows your name I'm living in a war with time I could still reach out and touch you And I wish I didn't know the things I know I'm standing in an open door None of it was overrated And I'm never gonna wanna let you go But I want you to go Don't even ask me, just go Ooh, oh-oh Hold their eyes, make sure they know Stand your ground but see the soul Beneath the pain and broken home With every drop of rain and bone Square your shoulders, turn to stone Slowly shake your head for no When you find yourself alone Retrace your steps and come back home I'm living in a war with time I could still reach out and touch you And I wish I didn't know the things I know I'm standing in an open door None of it was overrated And I'm never gonna wanna let you go But I want you to go I want you to go (I know you wanted me to) And I want you to go (go) I want you to go Don't even ask me, just go
