Wiser comes the man from the water reborn
Still holds his stained clothes
like they're all that he owns
Take a look around and let him bleed
I walk with scraped knees trying to find my way home
You holding my hand just makes me feel more alone
'Cause I know that you'd rather stay with her

And maybe if we make a change
It'll all be great, it can all be great can't it
And maybe if we stay the same
All our problems will fade away

I know that you're coming home
With her on your mind
For the millionth time
Paint over her face with mine
And pretend I'm blind
'cause you think you're being kind
If we just wait this out
And we don't say a word of this out
loud to anybody
I know you'll find your way back to me
Does that make me pathetic

Hungry comes the man from his dreaming
He says, "I'm ready for love
no matter how long it takes"
Its funny how whats stupid
sounds so sweet
Take it out and hang it up
'Cause the inks bleeding
through the crisp white sheets you love
And we keep scratching at our faces in the dark
Don't pretend you're asleep
Then sneak out to your car

I know that you're coming home
With her on your mind
For the millionth time
Paint over her face with mine
And pretend I'm blind
'cause you think you're being kind
If we just wait this out
And we don't say a word of this
out loud to anybody
I know you'll find your way back to me
Does that make me pathetic
Guess that makes me pathetic
