+My head is full of fire, my tongue swollen, \
+pregnant with all the things I should've said \
+but didn't.  Last night, we met each other \
+in the dark, remember?  You told me time was
+
+pregnant with all things.  I should've said \
+something, to draw you out from your place \
+in the dark.  Remember, you told me time was \
+only an illusion, and memory was only
+
+something to draw.  You, out from your place, \
+I out from mine, that night, I believed in you.  \
+Only illusion and memory were one, lying \
+down on your couch, through the night you drew
+
+me out from mine.  That night, I believed in you \
+when you told me you loved me.  I lay \
+down on your couch.  Through the night, you drew \
+a picture of our future together.
+
+When you told me you loved me, I lied \
+in the dark.  Remember, you told me time was \
+a picture of our future together.  \
+My head is full of fire, my tongue swollen.
