She sees a rainy day
I see a chance play
we hide in separate rooms
She’s watching tv shows
I blast the radio
to run the silence away
Call me lazy or call me out
Call the fire from heaven down
Let’s just put all these knives away
cause it’s not enough this time
We only got ourselves to blame
for all this mess you find us in, and
If we could spin the clocks back around
I’m sure we’d make this mess again
I count the stars at night
She’ll leave on all the lights
To help her feel less alone
I drive for miles on end
She’ll call her folks again
To tell them she’s not alright
It seems the only times
You turn to look and come to find
The well is dry when
everything's on fire
we fell from movie screens
To plot a cliche tragedy
The audience is stunned
wonders why
