|
In a car on the driveway |
|
The conversation's colors paint themselves on canvas |
|
White lies and motivation were standing out so honestly |
|
I'm surprised it didn't hurt your eyes |
|
I think that 'I' is the only word in your vocabulary tonight |
|
Those same brown eyes stare straight ahead |
|
And I shut my hand in your door |
|
And I looked around, for a lifeline |
|
Well I would rather have a broken arm |
|
Than have my arms around you |
|
Well I would rather have a broken arm |
|
Than have my arms around you |
|
It took a minute or two to gather all of my neurotic thoughts |
|
Before I started to talk way to loud, loudly I thought to myself |
|
God, how do I find myself here again and again? |
|
My same black eyes stared straight ahead |
|
As I took my time with a cigarette |
|
There, enough, I'm still in love with the false hope of us |
|
Stabbed inside my chest |
|
Let me tell you, all about it. |
|
Because I would rather have a punctured lung |
|
Than waste my breath on you |
|
Because I would rather have a punctured lung |
|
Than waste my breath on you |
|
Although, my dear: |
|
I would rather have a broken heart |
|
Than give up hope on you |
|
Well I would rather have a broken heart |
|
Than give up hope on you |
|
We've got all the time that we need. |
