Reach Girl Lyrics

so i'm choosing my past
one that she'll understand
one that's calling me back
now i'm holding my breath
and i cancelled our plans
said you don't understand
no you won't understand

(chorus)
she's my
reach girl
she's my
reach girl
all my friends are already with
who they'll die with or get bored with
but she's mine


just go on bout your friends
yeah you love me like this
it's been years since you quit
but each drunken poet
conjures her through their pen
every idealist script
works to fade out on this

(chorus)

(coda)
now everyone says i am crazy
to lay at your feet
without asking for anything
i come around
with magic soaking
to ask you on knees
are you falling for anything

now i'm holding her back
and i die with each breathe
no you don't understand

does she know where you're meant
to stand up in the end
does she scare you like that
no one scares me like that

(chorus)
