I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say I thought I'd leave you with a letter or a fiery speech Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play I've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense I'd like to know how you faded and you threw it away I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant
Well I could tell you goodbye or maybe see you around With just a touch of a sarcastic"Thanks" We stated out with a bang and at the top of the world Now the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks... And everything's blank
If I could only find the words then I would write it all down If I could only find a voice I would speak It's there in my eyes, oh can't you see me tonight Come on and look at me and Read 'Em And Weep
If I could only find the words then I would write it all down If I could only find a voice I would speak It's there in my eyes, oh can't you see me tonight Come on and look at me and Read 'Em And Weep
I've been whispering softly trying to build a cry up to a scream We let the past slip away and put the future on hold Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream And I've been dreaming forever hoping something would eventually come I saw your eyes in the dark and I felt your kiss on my lips I traced your body in the air until the bodies were numb
Well I could tell you goodbye or maybe see you around With just a touch of a sarcastic "Thanks" But now the rooms are all empty, the candles are dark The guns are exhaused and the bullets are blanks... And everything's blank
If I could only find the words then I would write it all down If I could only find a voice I would speak It's there in my eyes, oh can't you see me tonight Come on and look at me and Read 'Em And Weep
It's there in my eyes and comin' straight from my heart It's running silent and angry and deep It's there in my eyes and it's all I can say Come on and look at me and Read 'Em And Weep
(Read 'em and Weep) For all the hours we'll be spending alone (Read 'em and Weep) For the dreams we'll ignore (Running silent and deep) And all the promises we promised to keep They won't be kept anymore
(Read 'em and Weep) For the magic that our bodies had made (Read 'em and Weep) For the blood that we've lost (Running silent and deep) And all those secrets that we somehow betrayed For whatever the cost
(Read 'em and Weep) For those memories still alive in the bed (Read 'em and Weep) For the lies we believed (Running silent and deep) And all the thing that will have never been said Why don't you look at me and read 'em and weep Come on and look at me and read 'em and...
It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart It's running silent and angry and deep It's there in my eyes, it's all I can say Come on and look at me and Read 'Em And Weep
