lyrics

Beat my heart against the bricks
For being unhappy
You bring stones and sharpened sticks
To my lament
I read life is just a game
That I could take away my pain
Without thinking about anything
Or anything but you

Now you're coming back again
Been hiding out from the rain
You say that you miss me
Well I miss you too
But I just don't want to play
That old game where you slip away
Each time that you kiss me
It cuts me in two

When you call my name
I won't come running
Anymore
When you call my name
I won't come running
Anymore

I put bets against this life
For being so crappy
I got battle-hardened bones
And whiskey breath
And if I haven't gone insane
You gotta have faith in this old brain
Despite the things
I said or didn't say

Now you're coming back again
Been hiding out in the rain
You say that you miss me
I miss you too
But I just don't want to play
That old game where you slip away
Each time that you kiss me
It cuts me in two

When you call my name
I won't come running
Anymore
