I said, "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 with desire.
I've never lit a match with intent to start a fire,
but recently the flames are getting out of control.
Calling your name, kill me with words.
Forget about me, it's what I deserve.
I was your chance out of your town,
but I took the car and left you to...
...wait outside.
I hope the air will start to remind you
to get me out of this place.
I'll remember your face
and my words are as big
as the beating in my chest.
