If I found you lying dead drunk in a bath of memories
I would wake you and I would show you all the things you've done for me
If I held my hand out to you and you spurned it like your life
I would wait until the morning, making sure you slept alright

cnd if I thought you would allow me I would take you in my arms
Lift you to your feet to stand and face the man you have become
But you'd only wave my arms away and curse the day I came
Leaving no choice but my leavingand to sigh away your name

Yours is a pillow of self-pity and a blanket of remorse
You've built your bed of anger, your soul's richest resource
Your bedroom is a cavern, modelled after your dark heart
Where you've curled yourself to wait until your body falls apart

cnd if I thought you would allow me I would take you in my arms
Lift you to your feet to stand and face the man you have become
But you'd only wave my arms away and curse the day I came
Leaving no choice but my leavingand to sigh away your name

I can't stand to turn my back when
You can't even see your own reflection
I don't want to write you off and
Find you could have been yourself again

cnd if I thought you would allow me I would take you in my arms
Lift you to your feet to stand and face the man you have become
But you'd only wave my arms away and curse the day I came
Leaving no choice but my leavingand to sigh away your name
