A puddle on the sidewalk Feels like a sea to cross Anything I try to swallow Like gasoline in my throat My lungs seem so small I went out for a dangerous walk And when I should have listened all I wanted was to talk Leave your pain with me I failed to let you know I'm on your side And your hand slipped out of mine Leave your pain with me I'll wash your heart with soap until you can go free And I dream that you'll come back to me You let me pick a color For what I felt for you We've covered that with black now It was originally blue But you can't see it through I cannot push the bu*ton -escape So lay it on my shoulders and let this be my mistake
