you pitched and I was thrown

second face was never shown

though you hit so hard you know which way to look

oh darlin' oh darlin' didn't you read the book?



and all your nightmares were on fire

and all your lovers they were liars

though you tried my eyes you know which way to look

could you tell me, please tell me, didn't you read the book?



take me now

take me now

take me now



you were starry eyed and pale[?]

you had no reason to unveil

though you tried my eyes, you know which way to look

oh darlin' oh darlin' didn't you read the book?



take me now

take me now

take me now

take me now

take me now

take me now
