So many times we break down
On the little words we never learned how to say
One of these days, call it what it is
I'm gonna play my drums till' the morning come
How could you hold me when I ran away?
Some day I will thank you for all that you gave, honey
Only you'd know that my guard was down, with every clout
I was out on the lam, breaking sun and moon off on the corner
Bled of my honor I'll slow down
The distance that the ril cut
Through the trust we built our love on
I was less than alive, cold to your kind and oh so wrong
We stoned of it, we holding it and passing out
Oh, we're passing out
You've sown me up darling, in the phone calls from Camden
But I let you down
Don't you recognize me?
You said "your island's untied but I'm always home"
How could you hold me when I ran away?
Some day I will thank you for all that you gave, honey
Only you'd know that my guard was down, with every clout
I was out on the lam, breaking sun and moon off on the corner
Bled of my honor I'll slow down
The distance that the ril cut
Through the trust we built our love on
I was less than alive, cold to your kind and oh so wrong
We stoned of it, we holding it and passing out
On the lea we kept balling
Flushed cheeks ever swollen
And we were confidant liars
With no sense of time
