Tell Me

Big dark circles underneath your eyes I could trace the sadness hidden in the lines Jet black hair like mine, standing on its ends Shoulders tipping over, hiding from your sins We never took a picture, but it's burned into my mind Didn't want nobody asking why you with this guy I can see from the other side, that you're the jealous type But when it's time to say goodbye Tell me I'm the one Tell me that you're changing Tell me that you'd go and do it different if we made it You're feeding me all of your same shit Maybe back then I would take it Maybe back then it would make me forget all the reasons that I couldn't save this You like my hair long so i cut it to my chin I can't end my days back in Michigan Couldn't take the distance when I moved out to the stars Didn't want the picket fence and kids out in the yard I can see from the other side we wouldn't get that far But when i tried to say goodbye Tell me I'm the one Tell me that you're changing Tell me that you'd go and do it different if we made it You're feeding me all of your same shit Maybe back then I would take it Maybe back then it would make me forget all the reasons that I couldn't save this Said you hated red so now I paint it on my lips Easy to erase the pictures you were never in Maybe that's a sign that we would never walk the aisle Sometimes I still think about the child in your smile Tell me I'm the one Tell me that you're changing Tell me that you'd go and do it different if we made it You're feeding me all of your same shit Maybe back then I would take it Maybe back then it would make me forget all the reasons that I couldn't save this
