I tried to tell you how I feel, but it came out wrong It wasn't what I meant, it was much too strong But sometimes baby, I just see red I just see red And before I had a chance to apologize You went off alone and I realized Tonight I'm going to face an empty bed Hangin' by a thread Hangin' on the hope that you still care A tiny strand of rope is all we share I want to take back the things I said Hangin' by a thread I don't know what's going on in your mind But I know I'm in a race against time And all I see is trouble up ahead Trouble up ahead I close my eyes and see a bright razor blade Cutting through the plans that we made A picture of a future in my head Hangin' by a thread Hangin' on the hope that you still care A tiny strand of rope is all we share I want to take back the things I said Hangin' by a thread Before it's all lost to the wind Hear me out again I've got something on my chest And it won't let me rest, let me rest Let me rest, let me rest
