With your glass turned on its side,

Insecure and apprehensive, I admit

We took this for granted.

Now the glass drips dry

And the sinks full of spilt regret

I don't have the answer's you want me to give

The days trail by, and my teeth are rotting from all the lies

We both know somewhere there's a line and we've crossed it

So cut this barbed wire loose and let me roam the fields

I wont go far, just out of sight until I'm ready

Find me trapped, tangled in chains, 

and I might take a minute to listen to what you have to say

Otherwise don't be the water on this fire

Any other time and any other place

If I had the guts to admit it, I know 

I've made more than just a few mistakes

Now I find myself staring

the bottle up and down, as if

there's anything left I could've missed

I'd take it back if I could, apologize if you'd look at me the same

But empty words could never mend what's been lost and broken

So spill this poison down my throat and let me sleep for a while

I can't make any promises but I'll try to visit

Find me sunk, pale, and cold on the floor, 

I'll lay on my side so you can whisper in my ear

and tell me everything you never wanted me to know

Otherwise I'm nothing but a liar

and I never really cared for your thoughts

Don't be the water on this fire (tonight)

It only makes it harder to breathe

And my lungs are too weak to fight you (tonight) 

Let the flames disintegrate on their own

Let the ashes find their way to the ground

Don't make this any harder
