I let go of everything I ever had
'Cause I couldn't give the love
you deserved
By The Gunner, you shouted,
"Oh, my God"
It seemed churlish,
but it's what I was owed, I suppose
Every flagstone of this town bears our prints
And all the bars round here
serve my ghosts and carcasses
I wish I knew these things
when I was young
'Cause now I've just gone so numb
We take whatever we can
to get the reason back
So, plеase, don't rein me in
Don't rеin me in
Please, don't rein me in
I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss
All my memories of you ring like tinnitus
If I stop, it's just pain
Please, don't rein me in
There's nothing brave in walking alone
Love in exile has nowhere to go
So, come on home
Mm-mm, mm
Don't run away from my tenderness
You're so afraid of
that heart inside of your chest
We were doing so well,
but you were scared to be held
Took the easiest way out
I see the tears of a man
too proud to reach for a hand
Well, let my love keep you safe now
So, please don't
Don't rein me in
Please, don't rein me in
I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss
All my memories of you ring like tinnitus
If I stop, it's just pain
Please, don't rein me in
And I'm, I'm stood here
chewing everyone's lugs off
Telling everybody
how much I fucked it up
Telling everybody
how much I fucked it up
Telling everybody
but you how much I fucked it up
Slow down (Don't rein me in)
Slow down (Don't rein me in)
Don't
And I'm working myself
up to a nice, warm bliss
All my memories of you ring like tinnitus
If I stop, it's just pain
Please, don't rein me in
And I'm working myself up to a nice,
warm bliss (Working myself)
All my memories of you ring like tinnitus (My memories of you)
If I stop, it's just pain
Please, don't rein me in
