jamie paige lyrics!

⚠️ thanks to a boring plane trip, JamiePaigeBot has been updated with the new songs from Constant Companions (Deluxe Edition)! Jamie Paige is too good at writing lyrics so i had to split some long stanzas over multiple posts (esp in Birdbrain and Manifesto). please forgive me

breeze blows, winter's chill comes 'round again / piercing through your very soul, a frozen void at autumn's end

so maybe you're real, maybe fake, but your life is always your own to make, so let's enjoy it for it's own sake!

now it's almost january, i'm thinking back upon the year / i think that i have found my purpose, i finally feel like i am here

—and get excited for a moment, but like a candle underwater, it puts a bullet through the showman / but i'm giving it back tomorrow, and they can keep it at their bedside, i'll paint a pattern on the window, and watch them try to hit the broadside

got excited for a moment, never knowing what i wanted truly / and yet the clarity was hopeless, synthesis had overcome me completely

there's a fire aflame in my heart that'll never burn away / feeling and passion, the ardor of comfort and pain / it would kill if i tried to deny or to live off of the blaze, / so i dance in-between with the pyre to forge my blade

and if i never come home again, just know i'll be dying for your privilege / i'll keep your family name alive, i will serve my queen with pride

and though i try, i can't reply / it hurts my eyes, and i'm without an alibi / 'cause all this time, i've been alive, and all that i could want is to be living by your side!

you're my ally, olly oxen free to take you with me / i'm just making up the hours, how i needed you so badly

and i won't hesitate to make my dreams come true / and i will spread the joy, to them and me and you

say goodnight to every single part of me / lights, embodying my chemistry

now i've been dreaming of a bygone day, and filing all the dreams so far away / in this oh so heavy head, shoulders that slump in dread / and i've been wanting for a flash of light, a miracle to make it all alright / so what's a confidant to do?

i'm saying would you love me? the way i do, through and through / we could stand so tall, one made whole in two

i'm a mess, my seams are bursting, i confess, but maybe i could spend the day with you?

i don't want a love that rhymes, my heart's been broken for the last damn time

strawberry, i don't wanna miss you, but i'm lost without a light to shine through / strawberry, i don't wanna lose you; strawberry, i—strawberry—

and it's a repetition every day, a million words i just can't say / so what's a confidant to do? (singing, dream together, dream together, we can fantasize about the fairer weather)

it's so hard for me to trust your heart, that you love me even when we're apart / but i know it's true, how could i not believe in you?

oh, i remember, at the space center / outside in the cold, sun is shining gold—oh, do you remember?

i wish that i could fall a little bit harder / i wish that i could fall, like it would even matter / i wish that i could fall right into your life, but i'm not there at all, on the other side
