I wake up cold and sweaty
|
is it morning already?
|
I hate the sun for setting on yesterday
|
when I wrote my feelings
|
on the walls and ceilings
|
like drugs I'm dealing and you just walked away
|
|
the trees all sway and swing
|
the wind and I are both singing...
|
|
I was giving you everything I had to give
|
wasn't it enough?
|
all those promising promises were on your lips
|
but you wouldn't give them up
|
|
let me just say for the record
|
you can spare me the lecture
|
cause ever since I met you I've been lonely
|
your smile don't hide you
|
I see the teeth that you lie through
|
do I need to remind you that I'm only...
|
|
hanging by a string
|
I close my eyes and spin...singing...
|
|
I was giving you everything I had to give
|
wasn't it enough?
|
all those promising promises were on your lips
|
but you wouldn't give them up
|
