Lost by Emma Beckett Lyrics

Maybe I felt too hard and broke them
Maybe I lost them in the motions
I was going through to make you feel at home

But I stood outside your house for like 10 minutes
Before I walked up to your door
I’ve never felt that scared before

You cracked the door
You cracked a joke, and that’s what broke me
I know I went about it all wrong
And I’m sorry

And in the momentary silence
My eyes were open, I was trying
Saw that I broke it I was buying
I own all the blame it’s mine

Then I started pulling pieces out
The traces crawling from my mouth
I can’t un-see the way you felt
Can’t un-hear the way you shouted to the
Walls that you were hurting
I couldn’t heal what I was burning
So I watched it all come down
Is a house that’s fallen still a house to something
Or was it never home at all
‘Cause our house is gone
But I look back sometimes
I’m trying to figure out if that’s alright

‘Cause it was wilderness
And maybe I got lost a bit
But regret is more than wishing that the ending had been different
And just because it’s over now
Doesn’t mean that I don’t think about

How I felt so free dancing on your forest floor
The wind got colder through the trees but I don’t feel it anymore
And just because our home was a temporary one
That doesn’t mean that I think any less of us

And is a house that’s fallen still a house to something
Or was it never home at all
‘Cause our house is gone
But I look back sometimes
I’m trying to figure out if that’s alright

And if you’d rather let the ruins turn to dust I’ll understand that
But I hope you know you cross my mind sometimes when the sun sets
