Explain It Away

Light the signal fire
I said I'm coming home
I don't remember if I had something here
Or I can't complain about it
I got a piece of perfect
Always on my mind I see her now
And I don't know if it's that
I don't care or she won't care

Explain away and I do
The picture perfect thing
I would light the time
I could mean so much to you
Explain away and you do
The picture perfect dream
Lies and reasons hide
What it is you mean to me

Who she really is
I forgot to check this time
I got to be obtrusive
It's my life to be hung up about it
And maybe she'll be happy
If I breach the walls around her
And I don't know if it's that
I don't care or she won't care

CHORUS

So don't complain to me
It's you you really want to talk to
I got ideas to lend
But I'm afraid the cost to reach you
One look reality
And here I am to heal your pieces
And all there is to do today
Is start for perfect endings
