[Verse 1]
Tell me darling what's the problem,
What is the reason,
Silent like a golem,
Your mind changes like the season,

Because I can't tell if it's me that's the problem,
I'm not trying to be appeasing,
Because every little song,
Comes out all wrong,

Because I'm not the one leaving you in the clouds,
When every word of mine drips,
Because the wine is mixed with a dark shroud,
It's a glass half over everything you sip.

Because every rose has thorns if you touch too carelessly,
So take my hand while we talk about this,
Because everything wants to come to me—
Bad luck and good times and it rains like piss.

[Verse 2]
This is what I got for opening my heart,
Pinned to the pen of the wall,
Drawn in sketch and outlined at start,
Because I'm not the romance in the call.

Tell me darling what's the problem,
What is the reason,
Silent like a golem,
Your mind changes like the season,

Because I can't tell if it's me that's the problem,
I'm not trying to be appeasing,
Because every little song,
Comes out all wrong,

Because I'm not the one leaving you in the clouds,
When every word of mine drips,
Because the wine is mixed with a dark shroud,
It's a glass half over everything you sip.

[Verse 3]
Call it daydreaming,
Call it shady scheming,
Because everyone wants to ride coat tails,
While not calling out the banshee's wails.

Tell me something,
Don't clip my wing,
Because every songbird songbirds song birds until it can't sing.

Tell me darling what's the problem,
What is the reason,
Silent like a golem,
Your mind changes like the season,

Because I can't tell if it's me that's the problem,
I'm not trying to be appeasing,
Because every little song,
Comes out all wrong,

Because I'm not the one leaving you in the clouds,
When every word of mine drips,
Because the wine is mixed with a dark shroud,
It's a glass half over everything you sip.

[Verse 4 – Final Spiral]
And encircle the image in the sky,
Don't hang me like a paper moon,
Because stars fall when angels cry,
Left with presumptions left assumed.

Tell me darling what's the problem,
What is the reason,
Silent like a golem,
Your mind changes like the season,

Because I can't tell if it's me that's the problem,
I'm not trying to be appeasing,
Because every little song,
Comes out all wrong,

Because I'm not the one leaving you in the clouds,
When every word of mine drips,
Because the wine is mixed with a dark shroud,
It's a glass half over everything you sip.

[Verse 5 – Ending Confession]
And you say something that leaves me in fear,
Tell me darling—is it so wrong to call you a demon?
Because most heinous have a past written in tears,
Call this a sermon to the broken—

But in truth, this is not a call to action for you,
This is just words I write where I see what's true.
Dance to the tempo and stay in the cadence,
I am just simple and not decadence.

Tell me darling what's the problem,
What is the reason,
Silent like a golem,
Your mind changes like the season,

Because I can't tell if it's me that's the problem,
I'm not trying to be appeasing,
Because every little song,
Comes out all wrong,

Because I'm not the one leaving you in the clouds,
When every word of mine drips,
Because the wine is mixed with a dark shroud,
It's a glass half over everything you sip.
