lyrics

Right outside this motel at the highways end
It’s better left unsaid or maybe better to pretend
That the car outside while she waits for a ride ain’t watching where she goes.
This town’s seen this before, and everybody knows.
It’s busted windows, washed up needles, not a postcard you’d send
Believing what this was brings her closer to the end

I’m betting tables turn, believe me
I’ve been trying to lay waste or watch this burn.
Collapsed inside a sun-soaked picture of everything I’ve yet to yearn.

I won’t leave the light on for your sake,
Please take the clue.
‘Cuz I can’t read your mind, darling
And you can’t read the room.

Kill the lights.

Your curtain call.
Your last bow out.
She exits to stage right,
Another night out on the town.
I didn’t have to cause a scene
It just came right to me
I didn’t need you to believe
You just came right to me.

I won’t leave the light on for your sake,
Please take the clue.
‘Cuz I can’t read your mind, darling
And you can’t read the room.

And now our hearts are part of a show down the street.
You paid for the entry, and stayed for the beat.
Your critics all came and their headlines all read
“You don’t have to suffer if you’re just playing dead.”
We burned our hands, it’s our effort to understand
That we know everything that you want us to be.

I didn’t mean to cause a scene
It just came right to me.

I won’t leave the light on for your sake,
Please take the clue.
‘Cuz I can’t read your mind, darling
And you can’t read the room.
I won’t leave the light on for your sake,
Please take the clue.
‘Cuz I can’t read your mind, no.
I can’t read your mind.
