Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You taped the picture
I fixed the frame
We patched the drywall
Still leaked the same
You learned my language
From scribbled notes
But every apology
Caught in our throats
[Pre-Chorus]
We did the work
Checked every box
Laughed in the kitchen
Argued the clocks
Thought if we tried hard enough
We could weld the cracks shut
[Chorus]
We almost made it easy
We almost made it right
Had the plan
Had the promise
Still lost it in the night
We did everything they preach
Every book
Every plea
Guess effort isn’t magic
Love’s more than what we bleed
We almost made it easy
But almost isn’t peace
[Verse 2]
Your suitcase open
On half the bed
Folded decisions
Beside what you said
You kissed my forehead
Said
“This still hurts”
Like loving each other
Just made it worse
[Pre-Chorus]
We fixed the steps
The squeaking door
Ignored the part we’re fighting for
Thought if we just held on tight
We could bend the rules of life
[Chorus]
We almost made it easy
We almost made it right
Had the plan
Had the promise
Still lost it in the night
We did everything they preach
Every book
Every plea
Guess effort isn’t magic
Love’s more than what we bleed
We almost made it easy
But almost isn’t peace
[Bridge]
You on the sidewalk
Me in the hall
Both of us certain
We gave it our all
Isn’t that tragic?
Isn’t that kind?
Doing our best
Still leaving behind
[Chorus]
We almost made it easy
We almost made it right
Held our breath
Held each other
Still slipped out of sight
We did everything they preach
Every book
Every plea
Sometimes the hardest workers
Still don’t get what they need
We almost made it easy
But almost isn’t peace
We almost made it easy
It still brought us to our knees
