[Verse 1]
I can always pick up books in the search of what I need
But that doesn't help me any if you're impossible to read,
So if you love me, if you love me, come clean
[Verse 2]
These monsters in my closet are watching over me
The days are getting shorter and at night it's hard to sleep
The combination of all of this is the d**h of everything
So if you love me, if you love me, hurry
[Verse 3]
Because I don't think that wasting a second of this time
Would benefit the outcome of the life I had in mind
I'll refer to you as my special love, the one that set me free
So if you love me, if you love me, come clean
[Bridge]
Waiting around until things grow old
I'm feeling lost in towns that were my home
And if everything was easier before
Then we'll go back to who we were
[Verse 4]
So I'm picking up a book in the search of what I need
From religion to fiction, being lost about at sea
And all I can imagine is being brushed against your cheek
So if you love me, if you love me, come clean
