The lights out,
I still hear the rain,
These images that fill my head,
Now keep my fingers from making mistakes,
Tell my voice what it takes,
To speak up,
Speak up,
and keep my conscience clean when I wake.
(he saying he cant forget the past
even now that it over
and its keeping him from making the same mistakes
so he wont have to feel it again)
Don't make this easy,
I want you to mean it,
Jasey. (say you mean it)
You're dressed to kill,
I'm calling you out, (don't waste your time on me)
(here he's saying that that nigh he just couldn't stop himself
and that he didn't want her to be so easy)
Now there's an aching in my back;
a stabbing pain that says I lack,
the common sense and confidence,
to bring an end to promises,
that I make in times of desperate conversation,
hoping my night could be better than theirs in the end.
Just say when.
(hes saying that what happened is affectin him now
and wishes he could have stopped what happened from happening
and if only he were smart enough to stop from leading her on)
I've never told a lie,
and that makes me a liar,
I've never made a bet,
but we gamble with desire,
I've never lit a match,
with intent to start a fire,
but recently the flames,
are getting out of control.
(hes saying he didnt mean for it to end up this way
it was a mistake)
Call me a name,
Kill me with words,
Forget about me,
It's what I deserve,
I was your chance,
to get out of this town,
but I ditched the car,
and left you to,
(he's saying he WANTS her to hurt him
make him feel like how she felt that night
and he's telling her it wont even be worth it ; he's not worth it
he's sorry for leaving he hanging )
Wait outside,
I hope the air will serve to remind you,
that my heart is as cold as the clouds of your breath,
and my words are as timed as the beating in my chest.
(here he's saying that he's a cold person
and when he says things he almost never means them;
he talks before he thinks.)
