I Grew Up Pretendin' Sticks
Were Little Guns
I Would Point 'Em At My Dad,
And He'd Get Mad
Cause God Forbid I Hurt Someone
I'd Hurt Anyone I Could
Anyone Who Got Too Close,
And Anyone Who Wouldn't Look
I Was Born Into A One Hundred Year Storm
Foot Of Ice Across Vermont
And In That Dark, And In That Frost,
A Heart Was Formed
Malcontented And Unwarm
You Were Unsuspectin', Not Unwarned
Reff :
That I'm The Trouble Ahead,
That I Scream In My Sleep
You're Puttin' Money On Red,
I'm A Sure Bet At A Losin' Streak
I Keep Showin' You Doors,
But You Can't Open Them Up
Cause It Gеts Harder To See Me
The Closеr You Try To Look
I Just Live Here, Babe,
But You're The One Who Decided To Knock
You Knocked
Have You Ever Stared
Directly At The Sun?
Have You Ever Shared Some Closeness,
So Exposed
To Have It Spit Back By Someone?
So, Forgive Me If I Jump
At The Rattle Of Your Keys
"Oh, Are You Leavin'?,"
"No, Babe, I'm Just Wakin' Up"
And Now What?
I'm Left Starin' At The Ceilin',
Listin' Reasons You Should Pack
All Your Shit Up
Reff :
That I'm The Trouble Ahead,
That I Scream In My Sleep
You're Puttin' Money On Red,
I'm A Sure Bet At A Losin' Streak
I Keep Showin' You Doors,
But You Can't Open Them Up
Cause It Gеts Harder To See Me
The Closеr You Try To Look
I Just Live Here, Babe,
But You're The One Who Decided To Knock
You Knocked
I'll Be Gone So Long
Before The Anger Comes
I'll Be Only What You've Known Of Me
'Til Now
Oh, How I Hope You're Moving On
Reff :
That I'm The Trouble Ahead,
That I Scream In My Sleep
You're Puttin' Money On Red,
I'm A Sure Bet At A Losin' Streak
I Keep Showin' You Doors,
But You Can't Open Them Up
Cause It Gеts Harder To See Me
The Closеr You Try To Look
I Just Live Here, Babe,
But You're The One
I Just Live Here, Babe,
But You're The One
I Just Live Here, Babe,
But You're The One..
