It's turning on the TV when you were fourteen You said, "My mom's asleep, we won't get caught, what do you want to watch?" And I could hear the traffic that I know you're ignoring But I let it into my life to thicken to air I breathe It was at the bus stop that a woman cried And I could tell she was different by the look in her eyes And I don't know what she said, but I felt what she meant In her honesty And I went to your house that night and I told you about The woman's eyes and the words in her mouth And how I wouldn't mind taking her advice one day But I'm the cowardly lion I'll leave quietly If that means
A better chance to commemorate what we had When we were happy This isn't a love song, no, not in the least I just miss you watching my TV When I'm writing So I can hear you laughing I swear to god I still hear you when I close my eyes And you'd tell me I'm not gonna die Like you used to Before I did this You're the sunlight that I wished would leave I'm the rain cloud I don't wanna be 'Cause the more you're gone The more I grow pale I grow pale You're the sunlight that I wished would leave I'm the rain cloud I don't wanna be 'Cause the more you're gone The more I grow pale I grow pale
