Amanda Palmer - The Mess Inside lyrics

We took a weekend, drove to Provo
The snow was white and fluffy
A weekend in Utah won't fix
What's wrong with us
The gray sky was vast and
Real cryptic above me

And I wanted you
To love me like you used to do

We took two weeks in the Bahamas
Went out dancing every night
We tried to fight the creeping sense
Of dread with temporal things
Most of the time I guess I felt alright
But, I wanted you
To love me like you used to do

But, you cannot run and you cannot hide
From the wreck we've made of our house
From the mess inside

We went down to New Orleans
One weekend in the spring
We looked hard for what we'd lost
It was painful to admit it but
We couldn't find a thing

And I wanted you
To love me like you used to do i wanted you
To love me like you used to do

We went to New York City in September
We took the train out of Manhattan
To the Grand Army stop
And we found that bench we'd sat
Together on a thousand years ago
When I felt such love for you I
Thought my heart was gonna pop
And I wanted you
To love me like you used to do i wanted you
To love me like you used to do

But, I cannot run and I cannot hide
From the wreck we've made of our house
From the mess inside but, I cannot run
And I cannot hide
From the wreck we've made of our house
From the mess inside
