Lyrics
Verse
Something I read this morning has brought this tale to light
It seems that everything that I loved in you has died
No longer really matters if I was wrong or right
For now I must reconcile this failure with my pride.
Pre-Chorus
I gave you too much credit and I gave you too much strength
With my defenses weakened you leveled me again
I gave you too much credit and I gave you all my strength
And now you left me the way you found me, naked and freezing, dizzy and reeling from the…
Chorus
Threat you seemed to make so easily and I
Left you again
Threats, you’re everything I never needed
And the “Promise” that became the “Threat” that you made, are coming true again.
Verse
To the Golden State I return for myself I must redeem
For the mighty Mississippi has swallowed all my dreams
But my dreams were tainted and could this ‘cause I was blind
Love, it seems, will make you do the dumbest things at times.
Pre-Chorus
I gave you too much credit and I gave you too much strength
With my defenses weakened you leveled me again
I gave you too much credit and I gave you all my strength
And now you left me the way you found me, naked and freezing, dizzy and reeling from the…
Chorus
Threat you seemed to make so easily and I
Left you again
Threats, you’re everything I never needed
And the “Promise” that became the “Threat” that you made, are coming true again.
