| My heart is gone, it drove to the shore
|
| Swam out in the night, way out past the lines
|
| I heard that now it lives in the South
|
| Of West Central Spain, drinking off the pain
|
| Cause inside I’m broke, I’m cracked, I’m alone
|
| No hope for a change, no way to erase
|
| The world would be better without me
|
| So how could this be, somehow you love me?
|
| (II.) Fucked Up Past the Point of Fixing
|
| Stepped out to see the stars fall alone on the neighbor’s lawn
|
| I held my hand up, my head down, waiting to hear your call
|
| I thought I saw your headlights in the dark driving by our house
|
| I’m going out my mind
|
| I’m giving up the fight this time
|
| Love me or let go
|
| No longer care if I die alone
|
| Whole world is waiting, watching to see when you’re gonna fall
|
| 10,000 faces staring, your back is against the wall
|
| Fucked up past the point of fixing, so tell me what went wrong
|
| I’m going out my mind
|
| I’m giving up the fight this time
|
| Love me or let go
|
| No longer care if I die alone
|
| Cause in the darkness of my mind I used to dream of suicide
|
| I’m gonna pull myself out before I die
|
| I’m going out my mind
|
| I’m giving up the fight this time
|
| Love me or let go
|
| No longer care if I die alone
|
| (III.) 8 AM
|
| Now it’s 8 in the morning
|
| Up all night just walking around
|
| I’m hiding out here under the window
|
| By the sink where we used to laugh all day long
|
| I wait 'til I see you walking
|
| From the bedroom down to the kitchen
|
| Fingering your hair into curls while talking
|
| On the phone resting on your collarbone
|
| Here I come again, head is hanging low
|
| You put down the phone, take me in your arms
|
| And I’m all alone with you, my love
|
| Did you hear me coming?
|
| Running over the words I said last night
|
| While wishing I never saw your eyes swell up
|
| With tears dripping down your thighs
|
| I can’t let it go, I’m lost inside
|
| I can get so low, seems like there’s no up
|
| And I’m all alone so take me in your arms
|
| Knowing I’m the one
|
| (IV.) Zig Zag
|
| I turn around to say, «How could you still love me?»
|
| Sun is shining, lighting up your face
|
| You stare off into space, not knowing what to say
|
| Searching for the words to set things straight
|
| So I say, «I'm a zig zag, sideways upside down, out of my mind
|
| What’s the point of living if we’re all just born to die?»
|
| You say, «Why, why ask why?»
|
| I say, «I get fucked up.»
|
| You say, «Delusional.»
|
| Somehow will you still open your arms?
|
| «Come with me.» |
| you say, we step outside to face the sun
|
| Yesterday I dreamed that it would all burn down to dust
|
| (V.) Daybreak
|
| Take a breath, turn around
|
| See the sun come through the clouds
|
| The light alive in your eyes
|
| Standing here by your side
|
| Arm in arm under the sky
|
| I know I want to hold on
|
| The letters left on the lawn
|
| The shadows crawling the wall
|
| The mirror shatters and falls
|
| I’ve been lost for so long
|
| No more will to carry on
|
| So dark and dead and diseased
|
| Nothing left in the end
|
| And to pray is to pretend
|
| I’m tired of trying to believe
|
| So can we learn to forgive?
|
| I want to hold you again
|
| Can we remember our love?
|
| I can get so low, seems like there’s no up
|
| And I’m all alone so take me in your arms
|
| Knowing I’m the one |
