lyrics

I've begun to think that you were made for bigger things.
Save me a seat in the light at the race tonight
Cause I put my name, put my money, put my money on you

Remember when, remember when we painted our room
We painted it dark grey, people were so confused
It's funny how a color can throw them off, we just sat laughing amused
But you're so literal in your words, baby they mean more to me

I watched them burn, watched them burn, watched them dry flowers
I held you close in my arms through that cold shower
Crawling around in the dark, on the floor just to
Feel a light in the night, well I was there with you
I was there with you

I've got an idea
Hear me out
Can I count you in
Can I put you down

Programs on the tele, I'm there church every Sunday
And I realize, much, I've got much to learn
Serve him, but don't be a slave, lean all in but give him, his space
How and why am I supposed to learn the rules, I'd rather live and die alone

It was easier before when it was thick or thin
But now it's truth revealed whether you're out or your in
Well darlin' I'm out, proud to be out again

I've got an idea
