[Verse 1]
Early morning rain
Crashing upon my rooftop and my brain
Woke up in my clothes
Feeling like I'm insane
The hours pass like days
Like days

[Chorus]
And now you're on the firing squad
I throw my hands up, I surrender
I don't want to be a fraud
I don't want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightning rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up, I surrender

[Verse 2]
I see your eyes, hear your voice
Outside my window
Calling for me in a time of trouble
And you know I'd be there
Yes you know I'd be there

[Chorus]
And now you're on the firing squad
I throw my hands up, I surrender
I don't want to be a fraud
I don't want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightning rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up, I surrender
[Verse 3]
And I stand
And I watch
At the streetcars rolling
As the wind is blowing
And there's no way of knowing now

[Chorus]
And now you're on the firing squad
I throw my hands up, I surrender
I don't want to be a fraud
I don't want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightning rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up, I surrender
