If You Mean It Lyrics

Seasons are a'changing
You've been darker lately
Drain a hurricane over this dreamer
Trust a Gemini to hurt your feelings
Charming like a preacher
Wanna cut me deeper
Like a gentlemen on praying knees
I'd try to praise you 'til the whole world freezes

Hmm
I know you're lonely
And paying in private
I'm sorry your highness
Now don't you deny it

Hmm
I know you love me
I got it in writing
I got it in writing
It's here in my pocket
Soak it and light it

But if you mean it
More than a feeling
I'd take that beating
No further reason
If you're sorry

And if you mean it
How about leaving?
My conscience clean
Because I'll believe it if it's bull

I've got platitudes for you while the magma cools I've got platitudes for you while you lick your wounds
And I know what you've been through and that's no excuse
'Cause I try to call you, it's no excuse if you're ditch-side blue

Hmm
I know you need me
Go f*ck your one job up
And cry all the way home
I'll swallow that dollar, dollar, dollar

Hmm
I know you love me
I got it in writing
I got it in writing
It's here in my pocket
Soak it and light it

But if you mean it
More than a feeling
I'd take that beating
No further reason
If you're sorry

And if you mean it
How about leaving?
My conscience clean
Because I'll believe it if it's bull
