Maybe IÂ’m a little distant
Lost deep in poetry and rhyme
Sometimes love defies expression
CanÂ’t find the words
Can’t get ‘em out
Sometimes I wanna tell you how IÂ’d be
Without you sleeping by my side tonight

IÂ’d be counting scars
So here I am, no words to fight with
Naked in the open
Baring my soul for you to see
I know at times that
I frustrate you
I donÂ’t mean to
Without your love
IÂ’d rather die

Sometimes the world seems dark and grey
And I would wither without your shining light

IÂ’d be counting scars

To live without your love would surely tear me apart
And I would sooner be a prisoner than a millionaire
And see you walk away
Yeah IÂ’d sooner be expired than alone

IÂ’d be counting scars
Your mama said youÂ’d better leave
