I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say
I thought l'd leave you with a letter of firey speech
Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play

And l've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
l'd like to know why you gave up and you threw it away
l'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant

Well I could tell you "good-bye" or maybe "see you around"
With just a touch of a sarcastic "thanks"
We started out the with a bang and at the top of the world
Now the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks
And everything's blank

If I could only find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh, it's there in my eyes oh can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep

If I could only find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh, it's there in my eyes oh can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep

I've been whispering softly
Trying to build a cry up into a scream
We let the past slip away
And put the future on hold
Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream

And I've been dreaming forever
Hoping something would eventually come
I saw your eyes in the dark, I felt your kiss on my lips
I traced your body in the air until the bodies were numb

Well I could tell you "good-bye" or maybe "see you around"
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
But now the rooms are all empty, the candles are dark
The guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks
And everything's blank

If I could find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
Oh, It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
Oh, It's there in my eyes and it's all I can say
C'mon, and look at me
And read 'em and weep

(Read 'em and weep)
For all the hours we'll be spending alone
(Read 'em and weep)
For the dreams we'll ignore
(Running silent and deep)
And all those promises we promised to keep,
They won't be kept anymore.

(Read 'em and weep)
For the magic that our bodies had made
(Read 'em and weep)
For the blood that we've lost
(Running silent and deep)
And all those secrets that we somehow betrayed
For whatever the cost

(Read 'em and weep)
For the memories still alive in the bed
(Read 'em and weep)
For the lies we believed
(Running silent and deep)
And all the things that will have never been said

Why don't you look at me and read 'em and weep
C'mon and look at me and read 'em

It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
It's there in my eyes, it's all I can say
C'mon and look at me and read em and weep.
