Dogjaw - The Upstairs Lyrics

There's a light dimly glowing
Bring me back to a place of knowing
What you thought the last time that we met
There's a thought reeling me in
A piece of me keeping me from breathing
Just how much longer will this last?

But I just don't know what I can't let go
It's hard to understand, my dear, when your heart's set back a couple years

There's a wave loudly crashing
Keeping us from thoughts of napping
As we lie in emotion on the bed
There's a storm, storm a-brewing
Hold on tight, I'm pulling you in
Goddamn if I let this go to waste

And I just don't know what I can't let go
It's hard to understand, my dear, when you're heart's set back a couple years
But I just don't know what I can't let go
You're standing right in front of me, but your shadow's all that's left to see

There's a time I go back to
Looking in, you're seeing right through
Into my heart and in my soul
There's a light pouring in now
In my eyes, it's showing me how
Just how much longer will this last?

And I just don't know what I can't let go
It's hard to understand, my dear, when you're heart's set back a couple years
But I just don't know what I can't let go
You're standing right in front of me, but your shadow's all that's left to see

I'm thinking I should look at what I've found
And catch it before it hits the ground
