[Verse 1]
I'm not much of a charmer
Just a boy who grinds his teeth
The boy who grinds the coffee beans
She sees me underwater when she skates my icy creek
And she wonders what the blade marks mean

[Verse 2]
The season of the snow man
The season of the pine tree
Weeping needles, fresh from winds beating
As a blanket, I am fleeting
As a mirror, she's lost to me
And I'm sure her scarf and mittens disagree

[Chorus]
Tell me what am I supposed to say when you're kissing me awake
Just before you're crying, "I should leave" 'cause you're ashamed
Sometimes we're both no good
Sometimes we're both no good
So go on, run

[Verse 3]
'Cause all them dolls got eyes and could illustrate them pretty
My love, her eyes go unadorned and see right through me
I cannot avoid clear thoughts of morning
If she wants to leave me, she should leave me without warning
[Chorus]
What am I supposed to say when you're kissing me awake?
Just before you're crying, "I should leave" 'cause you're ashamed
Sometimes we're both no good
Sometimes we're both no good
So go on, run
Go on
Go on, oh
Sometimes we're both no good
Sometimes we're both no good
So go on, run
Go on
