Verse 1
With those words that I said
that I never meant to say
why cant we put all
these tears to bed
tonights the night
where everything will
fall around you
Guitar solo

Verse 2
This house enchanted, velvet carpet sprees
(your certainty gets the best of me)
(but by God it brings out the worst in me)
Your lonely hand did all to toss the key
(its a sin to let your words carress me)
(so count your blessings, its already done)
Isn't this the PICTURE PERFECT MOMENT??
Bottle up my tears in a SNAPSHOT MOTION??
Every window is a different story
Shut it then it moves
G F G--
on it like never happened
Refrain
Can't feel the ink on my skin
(And you scratch out my eyes)
Can't fight the tar in my lungs
(this is the last
knife youll ever put)
Can't taste the sugar from
the salt on my bones
the salt on my bones
(into my back)
(Repeat)
Chorus
In a single picture frame
you and I explain
The safety involved
in open doors
So record our memories
with windshields kissing trees
was worth dying for
Verse 3
Thanks for second guessing
Pin this rose on me
(My only friends in this
world are strangers)
(They dont know me well
enough to put my heart in danger)
Forever is a promise
that you could not keep
(Thanks for spreading
me a different story)
( parliament puff
covers all of my lies)
I'll burn the letters
while you burn our bridges
Sink the ship after
you lock me in
So do your best to
point the trigger finger
At all my bullet
G F G--
holes and safety pins
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
Piano solo

Bridge
Shaking all night I'm
Shaking all night I
Hope you saw the light
Hope you saw the light
Verse 4
while singing Bridge by other vocalist
You spend years
walking down these aisles
Empty pews never
meant so much to you
And I'd like it if
you took your time
And I'd like it if
you took your chance now
To reach your hand out
I'll reach my hand out
They'll brush in time
for you to realize
That empty words can bring
all that the world can sing
So I hope that its all
there waiting for me
CALL ME SOMETHING
CALL ME CURIOUS
JUST SO I KNOW YOU'RE FINE
JUST SO I KNOW I SPOKE IN TIME
CALL ME SOMETHING
CALL ME CURIOUS
JUST SO I KNOW YOU'RE FINE
G F--
JUST SO I KNOW I SPOKE IN TIME
(my dream came true with
ice on all your roads)
(shhhhh)
Verse 5
EVERYTHING THAT YOU WANTED
YOU GOT I WITHOUT EVEN TRYING
SO LETS JUST PLAY PRETEND
AND YOU'LL HAVE TO
TRY TO MAKE THIS WORK
(Repeat)
Outro
You know me better than
to point the trigger finger
At all my bullet holes
and safety pins
You know better than to
point your finger at me
