lyrics

I’m probably not the man
you think I am
I’m probably more bitter
than you could ever stand
but I’ll try
I’ll try
and I’ll ask you as you turn out the lights
is this ragged heart really worthy of your hand

I’m probably the weakest
man I know
I’m probably the cheapest thing
you could ever own
Afraid to touch you
afraid I’d smudge you
like some pastel chalk drawn love
and this ragged heart in the stained glass rain

Been collecting reasons
talking me down
collecting reasons
alone and out loud

I’m probably the ghost
of some man that caused you pain
in another life
a monster and insane
Now I know
should I go?
or should I exorcise this ghost
and this ragged heart just in from the cold

Been collecting reasons
talking me down
collecting reasons
alone and out loud

It’s probably not as strong
as this thing is supposed to be
a fragile China rose
falling down to me
out of mind
out of life
and I would like it if you had shared my time
but this ragged heart never got the chance to heal
