þErney (One Thing)

It’s never sunny but I
Don’t even need the sun
I don’t need anything
I’ll just make something beautiful
Of all the ugliness I’ve done
One thing
It only takes this one thing
One thing,
And everything is torn and ripped.

And I know it will hurt
I know I’ll regret it one day,
But that day is far away
And it will all have been worth it
I’m lying in my bed
Counting the cracks in the ceiling
And I can almost hear
My heart beating.

One thing
It only takes this one thing
One thing,
And everything is torn and ripped.
One thing
It only takes this one thing
One thing,
And everything is torn and ripped.

I don’t know why
The tears come by surprise
And what disgusted me
Is wonderful certainly.
With a tiny heart beating as quietly as it can
I stand, I surrender.

I guess happiness
Is only for the innocent
And you are the one
Throwing me in the sea
With my hands tied to my back
Swimming in the stormy sea.

One thing
It only takes this one thing
One thing,
And everything is torn and ripped.
One thing
It only takes this one thing
One thing,
And everything is torn and ripped.

One thing
It only takes this one thing
One thing,
And everything is torn and ripped.
