Lyrics For Shelley (Unheard) [Cadence Remix] - A Lot Like Birds

I remember proudly stepping over glass
That you said could never cut me
If I walked where you walked
Kept my hand in your hand
So I clung onto you
I remember soundly leaping over rocks
That you promised I would never trip on
If I kept my eyes up nothing would surprise us
I always wondered how
You never seemed to fall
You never seemed to be out of place
Whenever we were lost
You'd end up happy there anyway
I remember sleeping on a tile floor
Felt the nurses gently wake me
"Sir, you can come in now she's
Waiting to see you
I wish that she were well"
There were rocks in your back
There was glass in your hair
You tried to smile but it wasn't really there
You took my hand in your own, said "This feels like home"
And you begged me to take you there
You never seemed to fall
You never seemed to be out of place
Whenever we were lost
You'd end up happy there anyway
Saw you fading
Couldn't take it on my own
How I hate it
That a heart so warm
Can end up cold
I remember dreaming that this wasn't real
That you'd be there as I'm waking
We'd both deny we were scared
