[Verse 1]
I was drunk with the TV on
Bombs were dropped behind victory songs
And you were gone, but I'm still here
House a mess, but no one cared

[Chorus]
And I screamed at you
Screamed all my lies while you whispered the truth
I was begging please
"Reconsider and come back home to me
Cause we'll all be dead quite soon."

[Verse 2]
So it is: I'm on a train
And we're tangled up like balls of string
On a beach or the nearest sidewalk
You could sing about having to work

[Chorus]
And I sing to you
Whisper the secrets you already knew
And I'm begging please
"Reconsider and come back home to me
Cause we'll all be dead quite soon."
