Pushing Against the Chaos by Olivia Weinkeinyou're such a fool and
i'm so in love
i tell you
you don't even have to ask
three steps back and i'm falling now
and all we can do is just
laugh
so many things rewritten
who's looking at the past
or the future
or the moment
my hands your face
this
isn't perfect, no
this isn't perfect
i'm so in love you're
such a fool and
i tell you
it can't get much better
than that
waiting in corners in rooms
in chairs
with my blinders on
where have you gone
I'm such a fool you're
so in love and i
just can't see it
maybe with you maybe
with me maybe with her
and that makes three
shhhhhhhh......
there's a calmness here tonight
and it comes from noone
it doesn't live within you or me
there's a girl and she's so pretty
and you're so bored that you can't
see
and maybe it is me sometimes
when i break another word against
your
head
maybe tomorrow we won't remember
but i'll share my bed
with you
tonight
and maybe this isn't supposed to
matter what it is and what it was
and everything,
everything...
everything.....
