Lyrics

[Verse 1] I couldn't find quiet, I went out in the rain I was just soaking my head to unrattle my brain Somebody said you disappeared in a crowd I didn't understand then, I don't understand now [Chorus] Am I the one you think about When you're sitting in your fainting chair, drinking pink rabbits? Am I the one you think about When you're sitting in your fainting chair, drinking pink rabbits? [Post-Chorus] And everybody was gone You were staring down the street 'cause you were trying 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 Well, I love a storm, but I don't love lightning All the waters coming up so fast, it's frightening [Chorus] Am I the one you think about When you're sitting in your fainting chair, drinking pink rabbits? Am I the one you think about When you're sitting in your fainting chair, drinking pink rabbits? [Post-Chorus] And everybody was gone I was staring down the street 'cause I was trying not to crack [Bridge] 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 [Post-Chorus] And everybody was gone You were standing in the street 'cause you were trying not to crack up And 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 [Outro] 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
