RYAN ADAMS LYRICS - Crossed Out Name

"Crossed Out Name"



Orange sky don't go

Manhattan looks like someplace else

Cloudy with a low fog shelf

Into the crowded streets I go

Eventually they lead me back home where we used to live

I live alone

And into bed I go



I wish I could tell you just how I felt

I don't pray I shower and say goodnight to myself

And when I close my eyes

I feel like a page..

..with a crossed-out name.

with a crossed-out name.



I kiss her mouth and I know

For everything there is a word,

For everything but this.

I like the dresses, the shoes, and the clothes.

And everything you know that goes

With loving a girl, I suppose.



I wish I could tell you just how Im hurt

Pinpoint the location its in another universe

when I close my eyes

I see a fire so plain

..and my crossed-out name

I see a crossed-out name

I see a crossed-out name

I see a crossed-out name

I see your crossed-out name
