Maybe It's The Way - Rachael Sage

I feel innocent

I know I look different

I don’t want the world to know why

I’m sharp as a chisel chipping away stone

Sculpt you in my imagination like it’s time I own

Don’t want to say goodbye

Maybe it’s the way you laugh as loud as leather

Maybe it’s the day without you seems so cold

Maybe it’s the fraying of your only sweater

The one you gave to me when I was too tired to go home

Maybe it’s the time that bleeds into tomorrow

Maybe it’s the line you’re not too proud to say

Maybe it’s the gray behind the smile you borrow

Baby, don’t you cry, I promise I will, I promise I will stay

And I haven’t had this much fun

Since I discovered I could resent someone

For hurting me but this is like the opposite of sin

And I don’t think that I could be bitter again

Even if I were to feel that much pain

'Cause you see through me like cellophane

Maybe it’s the way you laugh as loud as leather

Maybe it’s the day without you seems so cold

Maybe it’s the fraying of your only sweater

The one you gave to me when I was too tired to go home

Maybe it’s the time that bleeds into tomorrow

Maybe it’s the line you’re not too proud to say

Maybe it’s the gray behind the smile you borrow

Baby, don’t you cry, I promise I will, I promise I will stay

And I haven’t wanted someone with so much joy

Behind the desire to not play games

And this feels so much like the synonym of truth

And I don’t know why

But I think I’m brave like you

Maybe it’s the way you laugh as loud as leather

Maybe it’s the day without you seems so cold

Maybe it’s the fraying of your only sweater

The one you gave to me when I was too tired to go home

Maybe it’s the time that bleeds into tomorrow

Maybe it’s the line you’re not too proud to say

Maybe it’s the gray behind the smile you borrow

Baby, don’t you cry, I promise I will, I promise I will stay
