A Million Tears

(album: Barricades & Brickwalls - 2001)

Take my hand
Break my stride
Make me smile
For everytime I've cried

Hold my heart
In the palm of your hand
Don't listen to it breaking
Just listen to the band

Do you wanna ride in my car
Its parked out on the street
Or just stay with me a while
Before I fall asleep
Take these tears
Wash your skin
I'm having trouble breathing
Since you walked in

My hands are tied
My head is reeling
My eyes have cried
A million tears
From wishing you were here

All my life
I've welcomed pain
I've made up more excuses
To bring it back again

Now I'm here
And I'll drink to the shame
I'll drink to the madness
That made me this way
