[00:27.34]Morning grows near, oh I wish you were here,
[00:33.67]as I toss and I turn in my bed.
[00:40.71]I long for your touch and I miss you so much
[00:47.70]and the silence has torn me to shreds.
[00:55.33]But even in longing, I still feel the pronging
[01:02.77]of misery's poisonous claws,
[01:09.67]when in your perfection I catch my reflection
[01:16.04]and in it my numerous flaws.
[01:23.80]Babe, don't be afraid,
[01:28.86]you know I love you with all of my heart.
[01:37.01]Please listen to me,
[01:41.83]don't let those wicked thoughts tear us apart.
[02:15.59]You're brave and you're strong, I am timid and wrong,
[02:22.28]you're a diamond and I am but coal.
[02:28.80]You're the moon and the stars, I am ashes and tar,
[02:35.23]you're a nightingale I am a mole.
[02:42.54]Babe, don't think that way,
[02:47.34]these are the demons that bite at your soul.
[02:55.56]Please, come back to me,
[03:00.14]you're losing your mind and you're out of control.
[03:35.10]Well, this is my curse and it keeps getting worse
[03:42.62]as I can't hold these bad thoughts at bay.
[03:49.72]So I'll whine and I'll moan and I'll cry on the phone
[03:56.00]'till I finally drive you away.
[04:03.70]And then I will ride with my deflated pride
[04:10.18]and the warmth of the blood in my shoe,
[04:16.67]'till an ugly old scar and a broken guitar
[04:22.76]will be all that reminds me of you.
