INTRO: Verse 1: I couldn't find quiet I went out in the rain I was just soakin' my head to unrattle my brain Somebody said you disappeared in a crowd I didn't understand then I don't understand now Am I the one you think about When you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking Pink Rabbits? Am I the one you think about When you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking Pink Rabbits? And everybody was gone You were staring down the street 'cause you were tryin' not to crack up Verse 2 It wasn't like a rain, it was more like a sea I didn't ask for this pain, it just came over me I love a storm, but I don't love lightning All the waters coming up so fast, it's frightening Am I the one you think about When you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking Pink Rabbits? Am I the one you think about When you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking Pink Rabbits? And everybody was gone You were staring down the street 'cause you were tryin' not to crack I was solid gold I was in the fight I was coming back From what seemed like a ruin I couldn't see You coming so far I just turn around And there you are I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now I was just getting used to living life without you around I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now You always said I held you way too high off the ground You didn't see me I was falling apart I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in the park You didn't see me I was falling apart I was a television version of a person with a broken heart You didn't see me I was falling apart I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in the park You didn't see me I was falling apart I was a television version of a person with a broken heart And everybody was gone You were staring down the street 'cause you were tryin' not to crack up Bona Drag was still on Now I only think about Los Angeles when the sound kicks out Now I only think about Los Angeles when the sound kicks out You said it would be painless A needle in a doll You said it would be painless It wasn't that at all You said it would be painless A needle in a doll You said it would be painless It wasn't that at all (when the sound kicks out) You said it would be painless A needle in a doll (when the sound kicks out) You said it would be painless It wasn't that at all
