Read 'em And Weep - Barry Mani [00:00:09]

I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say[00:00:19]

I thought I'd leave you with a letter or firey speech[00:00:28]

Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play[00:00:32]

And I've been dying for hours[00:00:39]

Trying to fill up all the holes with some sense[00:00:41]

I'd like to know how you faded and you threw it away[00:00:48]

I'd like to you all the reasons and what everything meant[00:00:52]

Well I could tell you goodbye or maybe see you around[00:00:59]

With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks[00:01:03]

We started out with a bang and at the top of the world[00:01:11]

Now the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks[00:01:15]

And everything's blank[00:01:23]

If I could find the words then I would write it all down[00:01:25]

If I could only find a voice I would speak[00:01:29]

Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight[00:01:33]

Come on and look at me and read em and weep[00:01:38]

If I could find the words then I would write it all down[00:01:43]

If I could only find a voice I would speak[00:01:47]

Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight[00:01:50]

Come on and look at me and read em and weep[00:01:56]

I've been whispering softly trying to build a cry up to a scream[00:02:17]

We let the past slip away and put the future on hold[00:02:26]

Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream[00:02:30]

And I've been dying for hours[00:02:37]

Trying to fill up all the holes with some sense[00:02:40]

I'd like to know why you faded and you threw it away[00:02:46]

I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant[00:02:50]

Well I could tell you goodbye or maybe see you around[00:02:57]

With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks[00:03:00]

But now the rooms are all empty the candles are dark[00:03:06]

The guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks[00:03:10]

And everything's blank[00:03:18]

If I could find the words then I would write it all down[00:03:20]

If I could only find a voice I would speak[00:03:25]

Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight[00:03:29]

Come on and look at me and read em and weep[00:03:33]

Oh it's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart[00:03:38]

It's running silent and angry and deep[00:03:43]

Oh it's there in my eyes and it's all I can say[00:03:47]

Come on and read em and weep[00:03:52]

Read em and weep for all the hours we'll be spending alone[00:03:54]

Read em and weep for the dreams we'll ignore[00:04:01]

Running silent and deep[00:04:06]

And all those promises we promised to keep[00:04:07]

They won't be kept anymore[00:04:10]

Read em and weep for the magic that our bodies had made[00:04:14]

Read em and weep for the blood that we lost[00:04:20]

Running silent and deep[00:04:22]

And all the secrets that we somehow betrayed[00:04:24]

For whatever the cost[00:04:29]

Read em and weep for the memories still alive in the bed[00:04:32]

Read em and weep for the lies we believed[00:04:38]

Running silent and deep[00:04:42]

And all the things that can never be said[00:04:44]

Why don't you look at me and read em and weep[00:04:46]

Come on and look at me and read em and weep[00:04:51]

It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart[00:04:56]

It's running silent and angry and deep[00:05:00]

It's here in my eyes and it's all I can say[00:05:06]

Come on look at me and read em and weep[00:05:11]
