Lyrics

[00:27.34] Morning grows near, oh I wish you were here,
[00:33.67] as I toss and I turn in my bed.
[00:40.71] I long for your touch and I miss you so much
[00:47.70] and the silence has torn me to shreds.
[00:55.33] But even in longing, I still feel the pronging
[01:02.77] of misery's poisonous claws,
[01:09.67] when in your perfection I catch my reflection
[01:16.04] and in it my numerous flaws.
[01:23.80] Babe, don't be afraid,
[01:28.86] you know I love you with all of my heart.
[01:37.01] Please listen to me,
[01:41.83] don't let those wicked thoughts tear us apart.
[02:15.59] You're brave and you're strong, I am timid and wrong,
[02:22.28] you're a diamond and I am but coal.
[02:28.80] You're the moon and the stars, I am ashes and tar,
[02:35.23] you're a nightingale I am a mole.
[02:42.54] Babe, don't think that way,
[02:47.34] these are the demons that bite at your soul.
[02:55.56] Please, come back to me,
[03:00.14] you're losing your mind and you're out of control.
[03:35.10] Well, this is my curse and it keeps getting worse
[03:42.62] as I can't hold these bad thoughts at bay.
[03:49.72] So I'll whine and I'll moan and I'll cry on the phone
[03:56.00] 'till I finally drive you away.
[04:03.70] And then I will ride with my deflated pride
[04:10.18] and the warmth of the blood in my shoe,
[04:16.67] 'till an ugly old scar and a broken guitar
[04:22.76] will be all that reminds me of you.
[04:31.89]
