They come and they come
I accepted it with a gentle tongue
Don't threaten me with angry
Reach for each other before you leave
We all know what it means
The bullets were blanks, a double aught gun
(Don't talk to me)
Don't talk to me
Don't talk to me about being alone
Take it, stomp twice, ring the bell
And I don't hate him, and I don't hate her
I accepted it with a gentle tongue
Tether that ring and phrase
No heart broken, no need to speak
I accepted it with a gentle tongue
And they come and they come
Don't threaten me with a gentle tease
Don't try to tell me what I am
Don't talk to me about being alone
(Don't talk to me)
Enough with the rifle and talk already
I wouldn't confide in the prodigal son
No words spoken, no need to speak
(Don't talk to me)
(Don't talk to me)
(Don't talk to me)
The die has been cast, the battle is won
Reach peace with a E-A-C
(Don't talk to me)
Don't talk to me about being alone
They come and they come
No heart broken, no need to speak
(Talk to me)
(Don't talk to me)
Take this conversation to your great divide
Don't talk to me
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone
Me, I think I got stuck somewhere in between
Don't talk to me
I couldn't admit to a minute of fun
I can only swallow what I ate
They come and they come
And they come and they come
Please, please, please
Don't talk to me about being alone
And they come and they come
(Talk to me)
(Don't talk to me)
