Keep Turning - Jason Myers

Verse 1 We built a life on borrowed time, Stacked our hopes and called it fine. Talked big dreams in smaller rooms, Love grew wild, then lost its tune. Drew the lines, then blurred ’em through, Did what hurt and called it truth. Weeks ran out, the years came fast, Guess some things just never last. Pre-Chorus And we learned, yeah, we learned too late, You can hold too tight and suffocate. Chorus Love ain’t the lock, it’s the key we keep turning, Hearts ain’t a fire, they’re a flame still learning. Pieces don’t fit when the edges burnin’, Love’s just a part but not the whole thing turning. Love’s just a part but not the whole thing turning. Verse 2 Tried to mold our shapes to fit, Wore the shine right off of it. Every fix just made it crack, Every give got no give-back. Still, I’d trace that same old start, Every piece still knows its part. Maybe love was what we knew, Just not enough to see it through. Pre-Chorus And I see it now, clear as day, You can love someone and still lose your way. Chorus Love ain’t the lock, it’s the key we keep turning, Hearts ain’t a fire, they’re a flame still learning. Pieces don’t fit when the edges burnin’, Love’s just a part but not the whole thing turning. Love’s just a part but not the whole thing turning. [Bridge - rap] Foundation, hesitation, Same things in circulation. Communication, lost translation, spinning that same rotation. Round and round that conversation, Are you Looking for some validation? You and me, with no destination, It was Just a beautiful complication. Final Chorus Love ain’t the lock, it’s the key we keep turning, Hearts ain’t a fire, they’re a flame still learning. Pieces don’t fit when the edges burnin’, Damn, what a ride, what a love worth learning. [instrumental] Outro Not the whole picture, But it’s the one we pieced together. Some things aren’t built to last forever
