The Death of Me

On a Sunday, near September
 We awoke surprised to remember
 How the light attaches to a change of heart
 What was simple, now there's questions
 The kind that I don't look my best in
 And the ghost of me will keep us far apart
 And you know you don't deserve this
 And I don't know how to word this, but
 Before you go, before you go
 I just wanted you to know
 That I would, that I would
 I would love you if I could
 But my unsteady heart's not ready
 And you would only get what's left of me
 Only this, only this
 Is gonna be the death of me
 It's gonna be the death of me
 It's gonna be
 I would give you anything if I had anything to give left
 But the phantoms here will never have their fill
 I would tell you I don't miss her
 Cries of love reduced to a whisper
 But the truth is that her ghost, it haunts me still
 And you know you don't deserve this
 And I don't know how to word this, but
 Before you go, before you go
 I just wanted you to know
 That I would, that I would
 I would love you if I could
 But my unsteady heart's not ready
 And you would only get what's left of me
 Only this, only this
 Is gonna be the death of me
 It's gonna be the death of me
 It's gonna be
 I've forgotten how it feels to have my head over my heels
 I don't wanna walk away, but it's not fair to let you stay
 I'll fall apart beyond a kiss
 A castaway upon your lips
 Only this, only this
 Be the death of me
 Gonna be, gonna be
 Gonna be the death of me
 Gonna be, gonna be
 Gonna be the death of me, oh
 Gonna be
 It's gonna be the death of me
 It's gonna be the death of me
 The death of me, the death of me
 It's gonna be the death of me
 The death of me, the death of me
 Gonna be the death of me
