[Verse 1]
I wish that I could be angry
Punch a hole in the wall
Drink a fifth of cheap whiskey
And call and call and call

[Verse 2]
But that ain't me anymore, baby
Never was, to tell the truth
I just saw it in a movie and thought
That's what I was supposed to do

[Chorus]
I was a gravelweed and I needed you to raise me
I'm sorry the day came when I felt like I was raised
And now that I live to see my melodies betray me
I'm sorry the love songs all mean different things today

[Verse 3]
I wish that I could be angry
I wish I didn't understand
I said your skin was like water
And let you flow right through my hands

[Verse 4]
Is there a love that's not crazy?
Is there a life that's not a lie?
All I know is that I had to go
You know why, why, why
[Chorus]
I was a gravelweed and I needed you to raise me
And you couldn't reach me once I felt like I was raised
And now that I live to see my melodies betray me
I'm sorry the love songs all mean different things today

[Chorus]
I was a gravelweed and I needed you to raise me
And you couldn't reach me once I felt like I was raised
And now that I live to see my melodies betray me
I'm sorry the love songs all mean different things today
