too strong of a feeling to put behind a cut.

[riotofcolor]

you took your coat off
and stood in the rain
you were always crazy like that
and i watched from my window
always felt i was outside
looking in on you

you were always the mysterious one
with dark eyes and careless hair
you were fashionably sensitive
but too cool to care
you stood in my doorway
with nothing to say
besides some comment on the weather

well in case you failed to notice
in case you failed to see
this is my heart, bleeding before you
this is me down on my knees

and these foolish games
are tearing me apart
and your thoughtless words
are breaking my heart
...you're breaking my heart.

you were always brilliant in the morning
smoking your cigarettes
and talking over coffee
your philosophies on art, baroque moved you
you loved mozart
and you'd speak of your loved ones
as i'd clumsily strum my guitar
you'd teach me of honest things
things that are daring, things that are clean
things that knew what an honest dollar did mean
i hid my soiled hands behind my back
somewhere along the line i must have gone off track with you
excuse me, think i've mistaken you for somebody else
somebody who gave a damn
somebody more like myself

and these foolish games are tearing me apart
and your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
you're breaking my heart

you took your coat off
stood in the rain
you were always crazy like that.
