You said it was doomed from the start
But I've got a stock pile of remedies
Tied down and left in the dark
But I still see what you really need
Promise me you'll dry my tears
Clear my chest of wounds that heal
Please forgive what made us ill

Say you want me to hear but why you gotta be mean to me
And scream you wanna be free from me
When you know you are and you are but
Say you love when I'm here but then you go and be men to me
And scream you have to be free from me
When you know you are and you are boy

Throat coarse burnt by pain of our hearts
So I'll save the kiss that was bittersweet
Cold smiles for us one final laugh
So I'll grasp the echoes of your sympathy
Promise me you'll dry my tears
Clear my chest of wounds that heal
Please forgive what made us ill

Say you want me to hear but why you gotta be mean to me
And scream you wanna be free from me
When you know you are and you are but
Say you love when I'm here but then you go and be mean to me
And scream you have to be free from me
When you know you are and you are

Say you want me to hear but why you gotta be mean to me
And scream you wanna be free from me
When you know you are and you are but
Say you love when I'm here but then you go and be mean to me
And scream you wanna be free from me
When you know you are and you are boy
