Your crystal eyes were shining
 As the shadows formed on the rock that stood behind your house
 You play piano well and it made me feel so sad I fell
 But I know your piece ain’t for me, yeah not for me
 
 You learnt your script in the morning when I slept
 As woke I found you screaming at yourself
 I sit convinced as you recite your lines
 But I know your scene ain’t for me, yeah not for me
 
 Hey that seems so long ago
 Piano sounded prettier when you played it slow
 Then L.A.X called me back home
 And all I have are photos, ticket stubs from old shows
 That’s all I’m left with this time
 
 You said you cried in the morning when I left
 Because you missed me and you wanted me back
 These dogs of winter rise
 Californian skies are just memories, stills in my mind
 Like the patterns on your ceiling, the reflections of the water as it dances with the sun
 And when the lights go out redemption is the final shout
 And I don’t think I’m ever coming back, I don’t know where I’m at
