|
I breathe you in with smoke in the backyard lights, |
|
we used to laugh until we choked into the wasted nights. |
|
It was the best time of my life, but now I sleep alone, |
|
So darling, don't, don't wake me up, 'cause my thrill is gone. |
|
(Say I'm wrong) |
|
In the sunset turning red behind the smoke, |
|
forever and alone. |
|
You've gone and sewn me to this bed, the taste of you and me |
|
will never leave my lips again under the blinding rain. |
|
I wanna hold your hand so tight I'm gonna break my wrist, |
|
and when the vultures sing tonight I'm gonna join right in. |
|
I'll sing along, oh |
|
'cause I don't know any other song. |
|
I'll sing along, |
|
but I'm barely hanging on. |
|
No, I'm barely hanging on. |
|
By the time you're hearing this I'll already be gone, |
|
and now there's nothing to do but scream at the drunken moon. |
|
This isn't fair! (No!) |
|
Don't you try to blame this on me. |
|
My love for you was bulletproof but you're the one who shot me. |
|
And god damn it, I can barely say your name, |
|
so I'll try to write and fill the pen with blood from the sink. |
|
But don't just say it, you should sing my name. |
|
Pretend that it's a song 'cause forever it's yours, |
|
and we can sing this on the way home. |
|
I'll sing along, oh |
|
'cause I don't know any other song. |
|
I'll sing along, |
|
but I'm barely hanging on. |
|
No, I'm barely hanging on. |
|
By the time you're hearing this I'll already be gone, |
|
and now there's nothing to do but tear my voice apart. |
|
Nothing to do, |
|
and scream at the drunken moon. |
