lyrics

Well it's raining in the city and the ashing makes you feel it
But we light our cigarettes
And everything is heavy and I know you barely know me
But I think you get the gist
And everybody's buzzing about something in the dark tonight
and you keep going on
And every time you smile I see the spark of something else
And it chills me to the bone
Don't waste your heart on me
I know the devil's in garden and he's got himself a bargain
And you can't the blame tonight
So don't waste your heart on me

So you're really fucking lonely and you know I know what that means as the bottles hit the floor
And all the things you hide from me become the things that I perceive things I should have felt were pure
Like the eyes that dream from windows day to day
Or how it feels to be the only one who prays anymore
Well I can never say for sure
Don't waste your heart on me
I know the devil's in the garden and he's got himself a bargain
and you can't take the blame
So don't waste your heart on me

Well I've seen dark, I've seen the light
Reds and golds and souls of white
And I can't guarantee that I'll always be here
Well I've felt hate and I've known God
And I've seen nothing and burning love
And I can't guarantee that I will always be here
Well I've known you and I've known loss
And I believe in less than us
And I can't guarantee i will always be here
