Broken all by myself saying
|
Woman don't pay no mind
|
Forgotten like a hotel Bible
|
Phone keeps ringing and I'm trying to keep my mind off it
|
And if you walk by my window
|
I'll open the blinds to watch you
|
Walk by like you didn't know
|
I was inside still praying for the day just be easy
|
Heard you're doing fine on the outside
|
Smelling like a fresh picked rose
|
Me, I'm still mothballs and lost minds
|
Down on the pavement praying, trying to make some sense of it
|
And if you walk by my body
|
Would you stop to breathe?
|
Or would you walk by never knowing
|
That I'm cigarette smoke floating in the glow of the TV
|
|
What would you expect from me?
|
I'm right back where I started
|
I never lost that first touch dreaming
|
Of that one first feeling that convinced me you were leaving
|
And how would you expect to breathe
|
With all of this around you?
|
Now I'm in this old empty room
|
Tracing back my steps to the place where I found you
|
|
Ring twice never come in so
|
People don't change like time
|
I'm sticky like the front door's deadbolt, the side door exit,
|
Wish I could've learned to let go
|
And if I came knocking on Sunday
|
Would you wear your white dress for me?
|
Or would you watch love through the peephole,
|
Talk through the chain blindfolded so that you never see me
|
I heard you like picking at wounds girl
|
Open up and let this one bleed
|
I never thought that you'd be the scalpel
|
To open up my doubtful and leave me in the backseat
|
And if I pull up from the attic
|
Would you wipe the dust off your dreams?
|
Or would you buy back what you gave up,
|
Open up fact to your nature and admit you were human
|
|
What would you expect from me?
|
I'm right back where I started
|
I never lost that first touch dreaming
|
Of that one first feeling that convinced me you were leaving
|
And how would you expect to breathe
|
With all of this around you?
|
Now I'm in this old empty room
|
Tracing back my steps to the place where I found you
|

Leavinga˘ć| [x5]

(Knock on the door, left on the floora˘ć| leaving) [x2]
|
You made me battle alone, don't make me battle alone

(Knock on the doora˘ć| Heartbreak Hotel
|
Left on the floora˘ć| Heartbreak Hotel
|
Knock on the doora˘ć| Heartbreak Hotel
|
You made me battle alone, don't make me battle alone)
