[Verse 1]
Been cryin' in my sleep
I've been screamin' out your name
I wake up in a sweat
Oh, Juliet, bearin' the burden of the blame
There's a lock upon our door
My keys don't seem to fit
You've shut me out and cut me off, long enough
Can't we talk a little bit?

[Chorus]
Open up, let me in
Let's start this thing over again
Don't throw in the towel yet
The fighting can beat out of my chest
I know I'm asking a lot
You're the only good thing I've got
Juliet, Juliet

[Verse 2]
There's a razor on your tongue
So put that knife back into the drawer
I'm already hurtin' honey
You've already cut me to the core
Oh just think of what you're saying
What about that new born baby
Hell I know that I was wrong
But he's mine too
And you can't take him away, no, no

[Chorus]
So open up, let me in
Let's start this thing over again
Don't throw in the towel yet
The fighting can beat out of my chest
Tell me all is not lost
Can we fix all the damage I've caused
Juliet, Juliet

[Bridge]
This brick on my hand
Gets to weighin' me down
You've been pretendin' not to notice
Buried your head in the ground
[Chorus]
Open up, let me in
Oh I wanna come home again
Don't throw in the towel yet
The fighting can beat out of my chest
I know I'm asking a lot
You're the only good thing I've got
Tell me it's not over yet
Can't you learn to forgive and forget
Juliet
