VERSES
Tuesday at 2am, long after you said goodnight
I put the coffee on, strong and I bought me some time
The roses you left me, were dead on the desk to my right.
A subtle reminder, that nothing's designed to survive
And love over-come is a battle half won
The view from both sides of the gun
CHORUS 
And I'm so afraid 
To be ready to change
All these locks.
To disconnect the dots.
And I just can't take the pain
although make no mistakes
Cause it's time I untied all the knots 
Cause if there's one thing I know that I'm not
Well that's a ship in the dock
INTERLUDE:   G   Cadd9   Em7x2  Am5 B  
            G Cadd9 Em7
LYRICS:
Tuesday at 2am, long after you said goodnight
I put the coffee on, strong and I bought me some time
The roses you left me, were dead on the desk to my right
A subtle reminder, that nothing's designed to survive.
And love over-come is a battle half won
The view from both sides of the gun.
CHORUS:
And I'm so afraid
To be ready to change
All these locks
To disconnect the dots.
And I just can't take the pain
Although, make no mistakes
'Cause it's time I untied all the knots
'Cause if there's one thing, I know that I'm not
Well that's a ship in the dock.
The wind's picking up, and I'm looking above for a sign
Your photograph's hanging, just clinging a moment to life
And I've seen the top of those trees on the opposite side
And if the grass isn't greener, then I'll know at least that I tried.
And I won't let myself live in this world of 'what ifs'' 
But it don't get much harder then this

VERSES

Tuesday at 2am, long after you said goodnight

I put the coffee on, strong and I bought me some time

The roses you left me, were dead on the desk to my right.

A subtle reminder, that nothing's designed to survive

And love over-come is a battle half won

The view from both sides of the gun

CHORUS

And I'm so afraid

To be ready to change

All these locks.

To disconnect the dots.

And I just can't take the pain

although make no mistakes

Cause it's time I untied all the knots

Cause if there's one thing I know that I'm not

Well that's a ship in the dock
