Understand Lyrics

Understand

That I didn't know, I didn't have a plan

For how it would end

And understand

I meant every word when we tumbled in

To a story unfolding

Please believe

I saw all the ways you were steady you

Stood in one place as I burned it down

To start over, and how it tumbled you

I'll never know

Hold my hand

And look in my eyes and know I'm sorry you

Were harmed in the process of making me

Thrown in reverse, I start melting

That scene on the front porch, caving in

Til the communion of everything

Leads to a dead end, or am I guilty?

I'll settle the blame and then set you free

The way to keep loving you is to set you free

I tried to explain and you tried to see

I tried to explain, you tried to see

Til there was nothing left

Understand

That I didn't know, I didn't have a plan

For how it would end
