lyrics

Even with your eyes closed shut
You still see me
You still see everything


Just before the dawn rolls up
I’ll wait for you
You said you’d do the same


You could never tell a lie
You’re not so vain
It isn’t in your nature


But you caught me by surprise
I know your name
You had me from that moment –


Showing all your teeth
There is no fade
You look so glad to be here


Just above the sea
I hide and wait
Hoping that you will be alone


Don’t leave without me darlin
Imagine how you’d look without someone else’s face
Don’t leave without me
You can’t





Take a few of your own pills darlin and say
It was never enough it was never enough
It isn’t my fault that you couldn’t be saved
Play a few of your old tunes darlin and sing they were never enough they were never enough
I’ll leave you comfortable where you lay




Every time I think of you
It’s all so grey
It’s not what I expected


So I had to take away
I fought so hard
Through all of your rejection


It wouldn’t have been so bad
I was so harmless
back when I first met you


But you never took a chance
You stayed away
And now you’ll always be alone



Don’t leave without me darlin
Imagine how you’d look without someone else’s face
Don’t leave without me
You can’t

OH, it’s nothing
That you’d ever carry with you


Even with your eyes closed shut
You still see me
You still everything
Just before the dawn rolls up
You show your teeth
I hope that you will be alone
