[Verse 1]
I walked across
Your empty halls
I got splinters I got holes in my socks

Hand you the nails
Watch you hammer the wall
If ignorance is bliss then I am pitiful

You wanted a home
I handed you the key
But you were asking
You were asking just a little much from me
I said

[Chorus 1]
Pretty, pretty please
You were pouring the antifreeze
Head in the engine asking more than you could give

Pretty, pretty please
You’ll say yes if you still love me
You said "coercion doеsn’t look good
On ya kid."

And no I don’t know
What I was betting
For all I gave it was time for you to givе
[Verse 2]
You jacket on the chair
At the kitchen table
My lipstick stain on a cup
We couldn’t put back together

All our friends will say they never had a clue
“Yeah, I toasted at their wedding”
Well, that isn't true but

[Chorus 2]
Pretty, pretty please
Like a fool on your trapeze
You recount your kindness say it’s time
For me to give

Pretty, pretty please
Don’t you dare leave me
Standing in the skeleton
Of a house with nothing left

And you had nothing to offer
But a beer bottle
That you smashed on the cabinet
Last spring
[Bridge]
I was standing in the remnants of your shadow
I said, "I will follow, but there’s places I just can't go."
Some things stay the same
Now I’m pleading at your grave

[Outro]
Pretty, pretty please
God bring me a time machine
But I guess he had nothing left to give
