Halifax lyrics - A Tint of Rain

album: The Inevitability of a Strange World (2006)
genre:

If I could make it to my funeral, I'd scan the crowd for you 
While all the speeches spill my life as suicide 
I'd buy a ticket from the scalper just to show I hate the system 
And you soon know I didn't really care at all 

Now I'm alive 

So you can watch me from the heavens as I rain down on your head 
Tell me what you've always wanted and I'll give you love instead 
And when I wake up from this dream, it's you that I'll regret 
If I have to break a promise to you, I'll break my hand instead 

You thought that I'd put down my pen but instead 
I put down the pills that keep me from the edge of breaking down 
in the back of this hotel room 
I saw you standing in the corner of court 
With a fist full of evidence that led to this 
whole situation of me and my plea for insanity 

I'll take you on 
Now I'm alive 
I'll take you on 

So you can watch me from the heavens as I rain down on your head 
Tell me what you've always wanted and I'll give you love instead 
And when I wake up from this dream, it's you that I'll regret 
If I have to break a promise to you, I'll break my hand instead 

If I could make it to my funeral, 
I'd smile to the crowd and say to dry your tears cause I'm finally alive 

So you can watch me from the heavens as I rain down on your head 
Tell me what you've always wanted and I'll give you love instead 
And when I wake up from this dream, it's you that I'll regret 
If I have to break a promise to you, I'll break my hand instead
