Write You Out
It started with a nightmare, or was it a sweet, sweet dream?
Like always, you were the star, oh and you wanted me
And it ain't just the dreams, babe; you're in all the songs I write
The most tragic of muses; a nearly ancient plight
There was a time before you, my own B.C.
But ever since I met you, it's hard to believe
You haunt all the songs that I write, even when they're not about you
And you're in the dreams that I dream, in my heart like a faded tattoo
I promise one day I'll make my escape, find a way to do without
I'll take over this story, babe, and I'll write you out
Sometimes I feel victorious, like I've erased your ghost
'Til I wake up in a cold sweat, thinkin' I'd just held you close
There's gonna be a time without you, a new A.D.
I'm gonna get there someday, but it's harder than it seems
You haunt all the songs that I write, even when they're not about you
And you're in the dreams that I dream, in my heart like a faded tattoo
I promise one day I'll make my escape, find a way to do without
I'll take over this story, babe, and I'll write you out
Write you out of my present and out of my future
Out of my heart and my mind
You are my past, I can't change that
But why can't I leave you behind?
You haunt all the songs that I write, even when they're not about you
And you're in the dreams that I dream, in my heart like a faded tattoo
I promise one day I'll make my escape, find a way to do without
I'll take over this story, babe, and I'll write you out
Yeah, I promise one day I'll make my escape, find a way to do without
I'll take over this story, babe, and I'll write you out
Like always, you were the star, oh and you wanted me
And it ain't just the dreams, babe; you're in all the songs I write
The most tragic of muses; a nearly ancient plight
There was a time before you, my own B.C.
But ever since I met you, it's hard to believe
You haunt all the songs that I write, even when they're not about you
And you're in the dreams that I dream, in my heart like a faded tattoo
I promise one day I'll make my escape, find a way to do without
I'll take over this story, babe, and I'll write you out
Sometimes I feel victorious, like I've erased your ghost
'Til I wake up in a cold sweat, thinkin' I'd just held you close
There's gonna be a time without you, a new A.D.
I'm gonna get there someday, but it's harder than it seems
You haunt all the songs that I write, even when they're not about you
And you're in the dreams that I dream, in my heart like a faded tattoo
I promise one day I'll make my escape, find a way to do without
I'll take over this story, babe, and I'll write you out
Write you out of my present and out of my future
Out of my heart and my mind
You are my past, I can't change that
But why can't I leave you behind?
You haunt all the songs that I write, even when they're not about you
And you're in the dreams that I dream, in my heart like a faded tattoo
I promise one day I'll make my escape, find a way to do without
I'll take over this story, babe, and I'll write you out
Yeah, I promise one day I'll make my escape, find a way to do without
I'll take over this story, babe, and I'll write you out
