I'm trying to figure out
How to spell the scare
That roots in my heart
And leaves me bare

I'd spell out your name
But it's not quite it
I'm not scared of you
I could take the hit

I could spell out your lies
Of your "I love you"s
Or spell out the names
Of the drugs you took

I could sing all the songs
About you and I
That leave me crumbling
All alone at night

But what scares me most
What I could never tell
Is how the ring still fits
Oh, so well

So I think, instead
Just to keep my pride
I'll spell out the name
That's written inside

C-A-R-O-L-I-N-E

I'd really love to say
I'd gotten over you
But some nights still
Leave me all blue
Long story short: I was engaged to this girl, but then she left me for this guy who could give her drugs that I couldn't.
