Give Out

There were your eyes in the dark of the room The only ones shining The only set I had met in years It's not because I always look down It might be I always look out It might be I always look out I am biting my lip As confidence is speaking to me I loosen my grip from my palm Put it on your knee In my way I say You're the reason why I'll move to the city or Why I'll need to leave You're the reason why I'll move to the city or Why I'll need to leave There was your breath on the back of my neck The only one holding The only one I had felt in years It's not because I always hold on It might be I always hold out It might be I always hold out I am biting my lip As confidence is speaking to me I loosen my grip from my palm Put it on your knee In my way I say You're the reason why I'll move to the city or Why I'll need to leave You're the reason why I'll move to the city or Why I'll need to leave So what's with the eyes in the back of the room? The only ones trying The only ones I have let in years It's not because I always give up It might be I always give out It might be I always give out It might be I always give out It might be I always give out --- Give Out - Sharon Van Etten
