  LYRICS:

  It's been 5 months of love,
  4 nights of pain,
  before you get enough write a poem with my name,

  collect me like a memory,
  the gilded knife of prayer,
  like a thousand broken lovers weaved by magpies in your hair,

  I said I didn't know it,
  but I sure had been told,
  I wanna break your rule instead of fold into the mould,

  if you kept something sentimental,
  don't you wear it like a jewel,
  shining in the face of your next valentines that's a different kinda cruel,

  there's one more stale bottle,
  of beer left on the wall,
  99 empty excuses that you leave me when you call,

  no, we can't talk in private,
  why don't you meet me on the train,
  we can slather all our problems on it like a stranger in the rain,

  if you scared about getting close,
  don't you leave me on the shelf,
  I'm another lucky penny won't you spend me in good health,

  just leave me, tied up in you bed,
  like a childhood belief,
  after giving your love to me ain't no other kinda peace,

  CHORUS:
  - Love is so hard,
  - don't you know? Goddamn!
  - I gotta go, gotta go, gotta go, now,
  - while I know we still both understand,

  All your bad times gather up,
  you still living like a spark,
  burning the candle at both ends blowing smoke rings in the dark,

  well, your eyes are speaking to me,
  trying to tell me of the present,
  lit up like neon night signs slurring in florescence,

  let's build ourselves a castle,
  shape it with our hands,
  and piece ourselves together watch it slip away like sand,

  I wanna give it all up for you,
  it only took me til the noon,
  but the things that you wanted were as changing as the moon,

  you ask 20 things from me,
  19 more to count,
  I ask 1 thing from you: love me like it counts,

  if you wanna wind me up,
  you gotta let me go,
  don't be that spider trying to spin me for a joke,

  mine's a smooth devotion,
  you can sooth against the pain,
  you's a hot narcotic just slammed into the veins,

  don't you colour yourself blue,
  outta things we might have shared,
  it's just cupid playing games no he never plays 'em fair,

  CHORUS x2
  (SOLO)

  Don't you take back a thing,
  don't you deal any blame,
  anyone who tries gone find out just the same,

  ain't no picnic, baby,
  there's insects in the fruit,
  trying to creep back around catch us in a loop,

  dress up all our tomorrows,
  tie them with a bow,
  throw 'em to the wind let them drift away like snow,

  drain the blood from my body,
  paint it on your lips,
  it's so cold outside won't you leave me with a kiss,

  with your pocket full of sand,
  trick bag full of blow,
  you sure ready for the night, I gotta practice for the show,

  you all Brahms & Liszt,
  I'm 2 or 3 behind,
  but I can't catch up 'cos you 9 days in the grind,

  I always buckle up from,
  those stories that you tell,
  tattoo your tales on me before you utter your farewell,

  pour your ink on me, baby,
  before my bones turn black,
  I give you everything and more, I'll never take it back

  CHORUS x2
