Rein Me In

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I let go of everything I ever had 'Cause I couldn't give the love you deserved By The Gunner, you shouted, "Oh, my God" It seemed churlish, but it's what I was owed, I suppose Every flagstone of this town bears our prints And all the bars round here serve my ghosts and carcasses I wish I knew these things when I was young 'Cause now I've just gone so numb [Chorus] We take whatever we can to get the reason back So, please, don't rein me in Don't rein me in Please, don't rein me in I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss All my memories of you ring like tinnitus If I stop, it's just pain Please, don't rein me in [Verse 2] I wish I could tell you everything But my stomach was too weak Sometimes it's easier to throw away your love Instead of accepting its defeat [Chorus] Don't rein me in Please, don't rein me in I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss All my memories of you ring like tinnitus If I stop, it's just pain Please, don't rein me in [Bridge] And I'm, I'm stood here chewing everybody's lugs off Telling everybody how much I fucked it up Telling everybody how much I fucked it up Telling everybody but you how much I fucked it up Slow down Slow down [Chorus] And I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss All my memories of you ring like tinnitus If I stop, it's just pain Please, don't rein me in And I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss All my memories of you ring like tinnitus If I stop, it's just pain Please, don't rein me in [Instrumental Outro]
