Writer In The Dark

Break the news, you're walking out
 To be a good man for someone else
 Sorry I was never good like you
 Stood on my chest and kept me down
 Hated hearing my name on the lips of a crowd
 Did my best to exist just for you
 Bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark
 Bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark
 Now she's gonna play and sing and lock you in her heart
 Bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark
 I am my mother's child, I'll love you 'til my breathing stops
 I'll love you 'til you call the cops on me
 But in our darkest hours, I stumbled on a secret power
 I'll find a way to be without you, babe
 I still feel you, now and then
 Slow like Pseudoephedrine
 When you see me, will you say I've changed?
 I ride the subway, read the signs
 I let the seasons change my mind
 I love it here, since I've stopped needing you
 Bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark
 Bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark
 Now she's gonna play and sing and lock you in her heart
 Bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark
 I am my mother's child, I'll love you 'til my breathing stops
 I'll love you 'til you call the cops on me
