Talk You Down -- The Script

I can feel the colour running As it's fading from my face
Try to speak but nothings coming Nothing I could say to
make you stay  Grabbed your suitcase called a taxi
It's 3am now where you gonna go Gonna stay with friends in London And that's all I get to know

(**) Just a cigarette gone No you couldn't' be that far
So I'm driving in my car where I hope you are Maybe I can
talk you down  Maybe I can talk you down
We're standing on a tiny ledge Before this goes over the edge
Gonna use my heart and not my head and try to open up your
eyes This is relationship suicide  Cos if you go, I go...

Taking shortcuts through the alleys While your racing through
my mind Cops can chase but they wont catch me
Not before I get to speak my mind If there's still time

(**) 

We're standing on a tiny ledge Before this goes over the edge
Gonna use my heart and not my head Just a cigarette gone
No you couldn't be that far So I'm driving in my car where I
hope you are Maybe I can talk you down Maybe I can turn around

We're standing on a tiny ledge Before this goes over the edge
Gonna use my heart and not my head and try to open up your
eyes This is Relationship suicide


Guitarist Mark Sheehan's songwriting for this album was inspired by the trauma of his mother's illness and death. He told "used to always say if she goes I'm gone." This sentence found its way into this song.    (songfacts) 


                                                 

                          A Mother's Death

When your mother dies, you lose a connection that can never be replaced

on this earth. But when she offers her death for you, you stand to gain eternity.
