You hold this place inside my head you're a symphony of hurt The daylight passes through me to another crippled verse Been here once before and I know exactly where it ends Right back where we started, pain, dead flowers on the bed Anna Lee, don't you cry for me You're not as strong as you wanna be In the dark we all see what we know It's the space that scares us so ♪ You lead me through your garden where only dead things dare to grow You convince me I deserve the thorns you've tried so hard to show Normal-ness escapes me to the point of no return The memories around this place keep us from movin' on Anna Lee don't you cry for me You're not as strong as you wanna be In the dark we all see what we know It's the space that scares us so ♪ The endless balmy air we breathe This city's startin' to get to me tonight I'll take the metro anywhere that isn't here I find the comfort in the pain I always 'cause... All night (all night) She might wait around for me To come along with a promise and a dream Anna Lee, don't you cry for me You're not as strong as you wanna be In the dark we all see what we know It's the space that scares us so Anna Lee, don't you cry for me You're not as strong as you wanna be 'Cause I know what I've been doin' to you Let me let you know I know what you've been waitin' for Let me let you go
