lyrics

You know, I'm not really big on regret,
except my letting you leave when you left.
Man, the work of the guilt is never done.
The work of the guilt is never done.

But if I act like a child, I'm gonna be
treated like a child, honey.
I know when it rains it rains on everyone.
When it rains it rains on everyone.

But I was always thinking of you.
I was always thinking of you.

She was a tiny fire.
I was a funeral pyre,
and the devil he blew his deepest breath.
The devil blew his deepest breath.

On the other side of that chrysalis,
which burned so with our sadnesses,
the night is dark, and the fire is dead.
The night is dark, and the fire is dead.

But I was always thinking of you.
I was always thinking of you.

You left me this message this one time
that I've still never deleted, where you tried
to explain what you thought friends were for.
What you thought friends were for.

You said you know that place, and you were sure
you'd been lost there with me before, you said,
but you're not gonna get lost anymore.
You're not gonna get lost anymore.

But I was always thinking of you.
I was always thinking of you.
