Days We Don't Talk Video (MV)

I get so sad in the dark
On the days we don't talk
I've got a headache that could clear the gators out of City Park
It's a hundred degrees, but I'm in bed freezing
You hardly gave me warning
When you left with your reasons

Could you stand me for a minute?
I promise I'm back with it
There was so much a-buzzin', but I couldn't admit it
There was a snake in my throat
And a bat in my brain
Now, the jury is out and they say I was insane

And I know that you haven't a harbour for me
I'm a mythical monster in a dried out sea
Could you tell me a secret you've never wanted to share
I will tell you all my weaknesses
And you can cut all of my hair
You are the pink room where they hang me to dry
I've been bled from the bottom, but I'm still alive

I have learned so much in the time that I have known you
I still yearn for your touch and hope to one day come home to you
I could build a cathedral, I could carve you from marble
I know I shouldn't leave you, I know I shouldn't argue
But I am just a man, I lose focus all the time
It gets hard to handle what goes on inside my mind

Now, I'm slipping like sand through a hand-blown hourglass
And I'm trying to understand why our love burned up so fast
I'm slipping like sand through a hand-blown hourglass
I don't understand why no love seems to last
