lyrics

I know just why you stopped drinking.
I know why you're often cold.
You had a darkness in your subtlety. I left my reason at the door.
She just has to stop herself I'm sure.
And I don't want to peel myself undone.
She got that inked thigh. She got that crooked smile.
I got vibrations. I know I play with fire.

Pretty soon I'll be back with you.
I'm feelin' like the chance is all mine. I feel I'm getting into my stride.
Pretty soon. I'll hear back from you.
Or maybe it's the end of my time. Sitting on the edge of this knife.

All these thorns slip through my finger.
I can't seem to rest my soul.
You had to dance just more like push and pull.
I had to sniff you out for more.
She just has to stop herself I'm sure.
And I don't want to peel myself undone.

Pretty soon wash my hands of you. Don't waste your time waving goodbye.
