You would if you had half a mind
Or better yet you engrave
It would be the same old stories but you're
You would if you had half a mind
How vulnerable you are
You'd forget to
Reminding you to
You would if you had half a mind
If we had no memory whatsoever
I'd keep your friends from reminding
I'd tell you every day's your birthday
We would stay right here forever
You would if you had half a mind
How effortless to stay together
Save yourself, leave me behind
But I'd forget to make money
Hearing stories that were never
[Incomprehensible] and leave me blind
So when you look in the mirror
Well, you don't forget to
You would stay with me forever
How effortless to stay together
Or how I stood beside you at a shotgun wedding
You just stay forever
And every gift I bring could be the same
[Incomprehensible] and leave me blind
How vulnerable you are
And the child we both would love but never came
And so you write on your forehead
Now you'll stay right here forever
Hanging onto every single word I have to say
To the world I'm not that clever
You would if you had half a mind
But you would stay with me forever
Save yourself, leave me behind
Save yourself, leave me behind
For these ties you may have severed
