Bitter Strings

So that I
Am falling asleep, exhaust in my eyes
Well those angry hands
They know they're damned
If I should die before I wake
Make no mistake
Well I'm dying anyway

And this time that we have will soon end
They're waiting in silence for you
And I heard you tell all your friends
That you couldn't wait 'til it's through
Well we're through

Who's saving us now
From the bitter strings of the jealous sound?
Well we'll figure it out

Know that I
I couldn't accept, I cannot deny
And those angry hands
They won't understand

And this time that we have will soon end
They're waiting in silence for you
And I heard you tell all your friends
That you couldn't wait 'til it's through
Well we're through

Who's saving us now
From the bitter strings of the jealous sound?
Well we'll figure it out

And I drove straight through Texas
I signed with O's and X's
My heart will break
And I know that I can't take
Your exit
Your exit

Who's saving us now
From the bitter strings of the jealous sound?
(Who's saving us now?)
Well we'll figure it out
(Repeat)

Well we'll figure it out
