Darling please wipe your eyes
I've never liked it when you cry
Thick black tears clash with your skin
It's never been your best look
Darling I can't be with you now
If you could just stick around
For everything you can still see
I think you just need to look
You can read me To Kill A Mockingbird
You can stay in my arms till you sleep
You could run away and be someone
You can always come back to me
Darling please stop counting days
Up until you fade away
Cross your heart and never die
You'll stay around, just look
Around you everything has changed
Me and you, always the same
It's all normal it's okay
Open those pretty eyes, just look
You can read me To Kill A Mockingbird
You can stay in my arms till you sleep
You could run away and be someone
You can always come back to me
Because you shouldn't have picked a date
And I'm glad you stayed past may
Darling I know you can be someone
You can always come back to me
I've never liked it when you cry
Thick black tears clash with your skin
It's never been your best look
Darling I can't be with you now
If you could just stick around
For everything you can still see
I think you just need to look
You can read me To Kill A Mockingbird
You can stay in my arms till you sleep
You could run away and be someone
You can always come back to me
Darling please stop counting days
Up until you fade away
Cross your heart and never die
You'll stay around, just look
Around you everything has changed
Me and you, always the same
It's all normal it's okay
Open those pretty eyes, just look
You can read me To Kill A Mockingbird
You can stay in my arms till you sleep
You could run away and be someone
You can always come back to me
Because you shouldn't have picked a date
And I'm glad you stayed past may
Darling I know you can be someone
You can always come back to me
