i never would’ve left. 

maybe it’s better this way.


the trail to our peak faded in March.


hard-headed thinking she can go straight,

misty had it turned out in missing you.


oh i know, i'm the only one who seems to know

why do i have to shrink my own to your behalf?


did you know, i drowned in tears you would've wiped,

yet you're known, least it's what i know, to not know when something's enough.


there's nowhere left to go but down

stood at the top 'til dark, scariest shit i've done so far.


sat in the cold in hopes you'd climb up

the hike we made for twelve twenty-six days.

twelve forty-eight if you chose to stay.


we wouldn't have stayed anyway,

somehow we'll have to follow down the trail 

but you met someone along the road,

and in a rush, i'm someone you didn't know.


i would've stayed anyway,

alone and blue out in the cold.

you didn't think to tell me if i should wait,

only to get a call you're at the plain.


i never would’ve left. 

maybe it’s better this way.


i'll just figure out which trail,

back or forth, to you or not.

i know, was it half my fault?


told you i shouldn't have gone to date you,

you know i never meant it, it was just you who deserves the truth.


but all of my truths that curse you,

i wish it choked me rather than push you..

when you're already down at the plain.


i'll just figure out which trail,

back or forth, to you or not.


i would've stayed anyway.
