When You Were Mine

I followed all your senseless laws
Fought seven sisters with teeth and claws
I spewed out demons on all fours
And kicked in lots of open doors

I drank all your raindrops
I spilled all your wine
I swam through the heavens
When you were mine

I hoped your gloom wouldn't be contagious
Just minor chords in a sea of majors
But Monday washes up on the shore
What the weekend can't handle no more

I drank all your raindrops
I spilled all your wine
I swam through the heavens
When you were mine

I put flowers on your grave even though you're not dead
I dream every night even though I can't sleep
I run like a cheetah, but I'm heels over head
Sometimes I laugh, but most times I weep

I drank all your raindrops
I spilled all your wine
I swam through the heavens
When you were mine

I swam through the heavens
When you were mine
I swam through the heavens
When you were mine
