This is the day

So you say you'll keep me from harm's way
You're not afraid to bleed
You're not afraid to break
Nicotine and sleep bring you back to your feet
Can you keep you love beneath me?

And I say don't run away 'cause I got roses in my hand

This is your day

So you say, take it on your way
You're not afraid to bleed
You're not afraid to break
As for me, I never know what I need
Can you keep your love beneath me?

And I say don't run away 'cause I got roses in my hand
I wish you'd stay
Why can't you try to understand?

Even though I should, I don't
Even though we could, we won't
She took my hand and said "Let's go home"
