Ashes of silver
Broken glass
Each one of you is different, bleached white and middle class
Laughing through coffee and scrambled eggs
Wonât you bend down further, and show me some leg
Dip it in honey, something sweet
I think youâve got a little something right there on your teeth
But I donât mind, you beauty queen
Thereâs something about you thatâs just waiting to be seen
Are you talking to me, donât waste my time
Little by little you can climb my steps
cause your feet have a way of taking you beyond your legs
And if I stay, would you regret it in the morning
And if I wait, but I know we cant
And if I stay, youâll turn around and tell me that you donât
love me anymore
There were times when I could not, I would not wish
This here existence on even the most beautiful lips
But then you came to me and you rescued my soul
You put back together the pieces of my broken bones
Arenât you listening to me? I really donât care
But you seem to know just how to shape
the sunken parts of my solemn face
And if I stay, would you regret it in the morning
And if I wait, but I know we cant
And if I stay, youâll turn around and tell me that you donât
love me anymore
Take it out on this chord progressionâ¦.
