lyrics

I wish I could tell him the every time he walks through the door
Inside I'm bleeding.
How when I smile and fill his cup, but never say a word,
Inside I’m screaming

How my whole life I've been reading lines or holding my tongue
All my songs unsung
And how my hunger is a match burning down to my fingertips
Will I let it burn?

How his hazel eyes
Could see me down the road to sin
All my pages would be scattered in the wind

It’s crazy how he’ll never know
All we’ve been through,
This man I never knew.

All those sweet delusions ever playing in my wicked mind
My wheels are spinning
All the fruit within my reach just withering on the vine
I'm always waiting

Oh his hazel eyes
Could see me down the road to sin
All my pages would be scattered in the wind

It’s crazy how he’ll never know
All we’ve been through
This man I never knew.
