Lights out
I still hear the rain
These images have filled my head
Now keep my fingers from making mistakes
Tell my voice what it takes to speak up, speak up
and keep my conscious clean when I wake
Don't make this easy
I want you to mean it, Jasey
(Say you mean it)
You're dressed to kill
I'm calling you in
(Don't waste your time on me)
Now there's an aching in my back
A sudden pain that says I lack
the common sense and confidence
to bring her hands to promises
that I'm making time for desperate conversation.
Holding my knife could be better than this in the end.
(Just say when)
Don't make this easy
I want you to mean it, Jasey
(Say you mean it)
You're dressed to kill
I'm calling you in
(Don't waste your time on me)
I've never told a lie, and that makes me a liar.
I've never made a bet, but we gamble in desire.
I've never lit a match with intent to start a fire
but recently the flames are getting out of control.
Call me a name kill me with words.
Forget about me, it's what I deserve.
I was your chance To get out of this town
But I ditched the car and left you to...
wait outside.
I hope the air will serve to remind you
That my heart is as cold as the clouds of your breath
And my words are as timed as the beating in my chest.
