0:25I grew up pretending sticks were little guns
0:31I would point 'em at my dad and he'd get mad
0:35'Cause God forbid I hurt someone
0:39I'd hurt anyone I could
0:43Anyone who got too close and anyone who wouldn't look
0:49I was born into a one-hundred-year storm
0:55Foot of ice across Vermont, and in that dark
0:59And in that frost a heart was formed
1:02Malcontented and unwarm
1:07You were unsuspecting, not unwarned
1:13That I'm the trouble ahead
1:16That I scream in my sleep
1:19You're putting money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losing streak
1:25I keep showing you doors, but you can't open them up
1:31'Cause it gets harder to see me the closer you try to look
1:36I just live here, babe, but you're the one who decided to knock
1:40And you knocked
1:44Have you ever stared directly at the sun?
1:50Have you ever shared some closeness
1:53So exposed, to have it spit back by someone?
1:57So forgive me if I jump
2:02At the rattle of your keys, "Oh, are you leaving?"
2:06"No, babe, I'm just waking up"
2:09And now what?
2:12I'm left staring at the ceiling
2:15Listing reasons you should pack all your shit up
2:19That I'm the trouble ahead
2:22And I scream in my sleep
2:25You're putting money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losing streak
2:31I keep showing you doors, but you can't open them up
2:36'Cause it gets harder to see me the closer you try to look
2:42I just live here, babe, but you're the one who decided to knock
2:46You knocked
2:49♪
3:00I'll be gone so long before the anger comes
3:06I'll be only what you've known of me 'til now
3:10Oh, how I hope you're moving on
3:13'Cause I'm the trouble ahead
3:16And I scream in my sleep
3:19You're putting money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losing streak
3:25I keep showing you doors, but you can't open them up
3:30'Cause it gets harder to see me the closer you try to look
3:36I just live here, babe, but you're the one
3:39I just live here, babe, but you're the one
3:41I just live here, babe, but you're the one
3:45♪
