This wasn't supposed to be a test Of will or years of patience But when you opened your mouth And still nothing came out I was speechless
Youve got a million things upon your nightstand Oh I hate them But it was in the pill I am swallowing still 'Cause I messed up, yeah I messed up
Keep the lights on so I can remember why I came Sometimes I doubt you my murmuring darling In the bloodlines, in the straight lines On the sidewalk in the palm of your hand I mumble through And you talk through me and it's hard
The lights, the lights they might Have brought me to the rocks here, where I am sinking But it's all in the pill I am trying to cough up 'Cause I messed up, yeah I messed up
Keep the lights on so I can remember why I came Sometimes I doubt you my murmuring darling
