You left it, I sent it
I want it back
You left it, I sent it
I want it back
If I had you here I'd clip your wings
Snap you up and leave you sprawling on my pin
This plan of mine is oh so very lame
Can't you see the grass is greener when it rains?

You left, I died
I went and you cried
You came, I think
But I never really know
I've served my time
I've watched you climb
The wrong incline
But what do I know?

Accept it, don't let it
Turn the screw
Accept it, and let it
Scream back at you

Now this applies equally to you and I
The only thing that we share is the same sky
These empty metaphors
They're all in vain
Like can't you see the grass is greener where it rains

You left, I died
I went and you cried
You came, I think
But I never really know
I've served my time
I've watched you climb
The wrong incline
But what do I know?

And I lie behind you
And I cradle you in the palm of me
Then I pat your hair down
I think we will sink or swim
Cause we could do either on a whim

In the garden, Snake was a charmin'
Eve said "Let's give it a try"
Now lead us not into temptation
But Eve is the apple of my eye
