Early morning rain crashing upon
My rooftop and my brain,
Woke up in my clothes
Feeling like I'm insane,
The hours pa** like days
Like days
And now you're on the firing squad
I throw my hands up, I surrender
I don't want to be a fraud
I don't want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightening rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up, I surrender
I see your eyes, hear your voice
Outside my window
Calling for me in a time of trouble,
And you know I'd be there
Yes you know I'd be there
And now you're on the firing squad
I throw my hands up, I surrender
I don't want to be a fraud
I don't want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightening rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up, I surrender
And I stand,
And I watch
As the streetcar's rolling,
As the wind is blowing,
And there's no way of knowing now
And now you're on the firing squad
I throw my hands up, I surrender
I don't want to be a fraud
I don't want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightening rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up, I surrender
