CAUTERIZE – Minor Key Symphony lyrics

Album: Paper Wings

Got a postcard
A postcard from my better place and he read
I wish you were here I wish you were
And the soundtrack
A Soundtrack from my better night and he sang
I wish you were here You should have stayed

Cause when I close my eyes
I realize I must have died
It looks like I can't make it through the night
I never got to say goodbye
I never got to say anything at all again two words

And I failed you
I was alive
Singing when you pulled me
Make it sad but sweet
A song about release
A minor key symphony

Found a letter
A letter from my dear old friend
And it said
I wish you were here
I wish you were in a prayer
A prayer and a familiar voice and she wept
I wish you were here
Why can't you be here
Cause when I close my eyes
I realize I must have died
It looks like I can't make it through the night
I never got to say goodbye
I never got to say anything at all again two words

And I failed you
I was alive
Singing when you pulled me
Make it sad but sweet
A song about release
A minor key symphony

I got your flowers today
So perfectly I lay
With a card attached
I'm sorry you could not stay
You came a little late
I had to wait till they died
There's no tears up here
But surely I would have cried

To every word I have loved
To all the words that I mean
I never meant to leave

I never got to say goodbye
I never got to say anything at all again two words

And I failed you
I was alive
Singing when you pulled me
Make it sad but sweet
A song about release
A minor key symphony

Singing when you pulled me
Make it sad but sweet
A song about release
A minor key symphony
