Parachute She (For Liz) lyrics

She has no problem with secrets, she knows how to keep them
She never felt the need to let them show
I've had no trouble with speaking or trusting my instincts
And maybe this is one that I should know

But as I'm waiting there the devil on my shoulder stares
Laughing at the one thing I can't get is what I need

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me make me feel so alive?
And I couldn't speak, I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim like sinking ship
This time it's it, I'll drown or make her mine

My vocal chords have been fighting, my mouth likes to spite me
It never says the words that come to mind
And I brought a stick to a gun fight and I'm stuck with my tongue tied
I run but I can't hide what's always there is

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me make me feel so alive?
And I couldn't speak, I couldn't breathe to save my life

All of my chances swim like sinking ship
This time it's it, I'll drown or make her mine

I can see these things I'd do
But never seem to follow through

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me make me feel so alive?

She, she is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me make me feel so alive?
And I couldn't speak, I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim like sinking ship
This time it's it, I'll drown or make her mine

Whoa, I said I'll drown or make her mine
Whoa, and I couldn't speak, I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim like sinking ship
This time it's it, I'll drown or make her mine
