Tin Cup Prophet

[Verse 1] You came in late With salt on your cuffs Tin cup in your hand And a stare too rough Your boots on tile Your phone half-dead You said my name Then looked ahead I read your face Like a cracked icon All those little lies Still turned me on [Pre-Chorus] Say it clean Say it plain Cut the wire Feel the shame My heart goes Bip-bip-bad When you lean close And talk like that [Chorus] Tin cup prophet Tell me true Tin cup prophet What you do Tin cup prophet I still stay Tin cup prophet Don’t walk away (Stay) (Tell me true) [Verse 2] Ash on your sleeve Rain in your hair You laughed real slow Like you didn’t care We drank cheap wine Out by the sink You spun that coin And made me think You said “go home” Then pulled me near One cold metal kiss And I disappeared [Pre-Chorus] Say it clean Say it plain Cut the wire Feel the shame My heart goes Bip-bip-bad When you lean close And talk like that [Chorus] Tin cup prophet Tell me true Tin cup prophet What you do Tin cup prophet I still stay Tin cup prophet Don’t walk away (Stay) (Tell me true) [Bridge] Now the dawn cuts white On the window frame Your voice breaks up But it says my name I keep your coat On the chair by the wall If you come back once I’ll answer it all [Final Chorus] Tin cup prophet Tell me true Tin cup prophet I still choose you Tin cup prophet One more day Tin cup prophet Don’t fade away (Stay) (Tell me true)
