Red House Painters Katy song Lyrics

Some escape, some door to open.
This path seems the blackest
But I guess it's the soonest.

But there in the clearing
I know you'll be wearing
Your young aching smile
And waving your hand.

Can't go with my heart when
I can't feel what's in it.
I thought you'd come over,
But for some reason you didn't.
Glass on the pavement under my shoe,
Without you is all my life amounts to.

A final sleep,
No words from my cutting
Mouth to your ear or
Taut wicked pinches
From my fingers to your bitter face,
That I can't heal.

I know tomorrow
You will be
Somewhere in London,
Living with someone.

You've got some kind of family
There to turn to,
And that's more than I could ever give you.

A chance for calm,
A hope for freedom,
Outlet from my cold solitary kingdom.
By the forest of our spring stay,
Where you walked away.

And left a bleeding part of me,
Empty and bothered,
Watching the water,
Quiet in the corner,
Numb and falling through.
Without you what does my life amount to?
