All is Said and Done

I need you to hear me
I want you to feel this
It should be clear as fear and plain as day

I'm not gonna bend now
You're not gonna break me
You'll never be hard enough to scratch my face

I wanted to fill you
I tried to belong here
With all of the ghosts and faded headlines

But I couldn't read you
No you wouldn't let me
You'll always pull away from the ones you can't defy

Are you tired
of holding up the sky
and teaching birds to fly?
You've done it all your life.
Oh, baby, are you sad
when you see the sun,
'cause then you're not the brightest one
when all is said and done.
And, honey, all is said and done

I need to get through this
The waiting just kills me
Whatever you do's on you and I'm washed clean

No don't be alarmed now
The story's ending
These aren't opens; they're just waving you away

Are you tired
of holding up the sky
and teaching birds to fly?
You've done it all your life.
Oh, baby, are you sad
when you see the sun,
You never were the brightest one
when all is said and done.
And, honey, all is said and done

All is said and done
All is said and done

I need you to hear me
I want you to feel this
It should be clear as fear and plain as day

Are you tired
of holding up the sky
and teaching birds to fly?
You've done it all your life.
Oh, baby, are you sad
when you see the sun,
You never were the brightest one
when all is said and done.
And, honey, all is said and done

Are you tired
of holding up the sky
and teaching birds to fly?
You've done it all your life.
Oh, baby, are you sad
when you see the sun?
You know you're not the brightest one
when all is said and done.
And, honey, all is said and done
