lyrics

Call me at 3 and we'll sit in my room
And I'll play all those songs that meant something to you
But you're gone.
All of the days, whatever it meant
I still talk about us in the present tense 'coz I'm lost

Started a book, that had no end
I put it down and I searched for it in my head
Slowly but surely the cracks over time
They get deeper and deeper so you can go hide away

I'm not afraid of the rain
I'm not afraid of the wind in this town
'Coz you soaked me through
And you blew me from north to south

And this is the end (you blew me from north to south)

I promised myself and I promised you too
When we laid on the grass that I'd be there for you when you needed me
But now I need you and you're nowhere in sight
And the echoes still ring from all of the fights that came my way

I'm not afraid of the rain
I'm not afraid of the wind in this town
'Coz you soaked me through
And you blew me from north to south

And this is the end (you blew me from north to south)

You wanted space, well now you've got acres
Alone in this world, soon we'll be strangers
I hate that I'm lost, I hate that I'm empty
Oh, I wish that I could hate you

Call me at 3 and we'll sit in my room
And I'll play all those songs that meant something to you
But you're gone.
