Heading Emotional South

I know this sinking feeling

That salt water sting

The bottom line, I'm underneath it

I hang on every word that you say

And in an icy wind I sway

If this is your mind you seldom speak it

With words as cold as history

Falling from your precious mouth

I don't need to hear

What you need to say

To be heading emotional south

I'm sliding down your wall

Into the gutter where love gets down and crawls

Among the promises that lie there broken

Hey, does it hurt to see

The damage done so recklessly

By all the hollow lines you've spoken?

With words as cold as history

Falling from your precious mouth

I don't need to hear

What you need to say

I'm heading emotional south anyway

All my love in vain
