Songtext von Bare Hands

Cut me loose in mid-September I was out of my element Started building up these walls Keeping everybody outside of them Like bare hands holding on to the wire Weeks pass, the Earth is turning Things start swimming into focus And now I'm rolling your words through my cheeks Like a mouth full of poison I watch it all go up in the fire You were feeling lonely, and you called me Hoping I'd be home You're like a bad trip or a sick habit I should've left it alone You were feeling lonely, takin' advantage Knowing I wouldn't say no You're just a bad trip, I can't help it, oh Wake up alone, now it's December There's snow out in the yard A cold wind cutting through my jacket As I drift up the boulevard That sinking feeling creeping in again No matter what I try And I'm just waiting for a signal I'm just staring down at my Bare hands holding on to the wire Good lord, I'm worn out, and I'm always tired Bare hands holding on to the wire And I'm always tired [Chorus] You were feeling lonely, and you called me Hoping I'd be home You're like a bad trip or a sick habit I should've left it alone You were feeling lonely, takin' advantage Knowing I wouldn't say no You're just a bad trip, I can't help it You were feeling lonely And you called me Takin' advantage You're just a bad trip, I can't help it, oh Bare hands holding on to the wire Bare hands holding on to the wire
