lyrics

It was Christmas in October
When our hearts were introduced
Or rather,
They had met 10 years before
But never quite like this

You told me you were takin yours
And headed on the road
I even wrote a song about it
But forgot all of the chords

When I woke my head was poundin
I was runnin late for work
Goddammit,
The whole world smelled like french perfume
But only we knew why

I had your sock on by mistake
You told me "Keep it safe!"
So I kept it in a box and it moved with me
From state to state

Many nights I'd lay awake
With dreams of bein by your side
Often times while not a lone
A secret I would hide

I know it wasn't right
But my heart belonged to you
I owe them all apologies
For all the times I wasn't true

Months turned into years
As we lived our separate lives
No matter,
The embers never died
The fire burning my insides

I gave myself to others
Only pieces here and there
The rest I pressed against your forehead
Hoped I'd get back in time

There's a desperation to Aarons lyrics, as he often uses his writing to try and understand why he's got so many dang feelings. Musically, he likes to juxtapose his emo ass lyrics with something you can also tap your toes to. ... more
