Every Walk That I've Ever Taken Has Been In Your Direction - Civil Twilight

Some nights,

I awake to a room,

Plastic and fake

And the sheets smell of you

Even though,

You were never there

And I was never true

And my mouth fills up

With the words I owe

As if they never found a home

One last thing

Before I go

One last thing

You need to know

Every walk I’ve ever taken

Has been in your direction

(In your direction)

I’m gonna live,

I’m gonna die

I’m gonna know

What it’s like to be

On the edge of something

'Cause the robes,

The thrones,

The cornerstones

Will be burned into nothing

And I will know

What it means to roam

I will rise

Like the orange dust of home

One last thing

Before I go

One last thing

You need to know

Every walk I’ve ever taken

Has been in your direction

One last thing

Before I go,

I wanted every part

Of you to know

That one last thing

Before I go,

I loved you more than…

…You will know what I did

One last thing

Before I go

One last thing

You need to know

Every walk I’ve ever taken

Has been in your…

Has been in your direction
