Sooner Lyrics - Shame - Petal

Thumbing through magazines 

Painting a dream house 

Being mocked by the crack in the ceiling at the top of the stairs 

Wishing it'd swallow me whole 

Quiet and whole 

It's your decision to change 

But I'd rather make it for you 

I've got a sneaking suspicion 

Please don't leave sooner than you have to 

An itch I can't scratch 

Count me in I'll bow down and sow a garden of backbones I never had 

Running circles straight into the ground 

Spine bent back 

Purple, red 

I'll continue to carry you 

Perpetual, preventable ache
