Under Your Breath

Ryan Adams


Hangin' in the underground 
Before a train back out of town 
Away from you 
All the lights that disappear 
In the tunnels way down here 
It's quite a view 

Sometimes I wish I were deaf 
Then I wouldn't hear the words you say 
Under your breath 
Under your breath 

Locked away in your room 
On the phone with someone who 
She thinks out loud 
Thought she found the right to leave 
Think of the things you used to need 
And I'd run out 

Sometimes I wish I were deaf 
But I hear the words you say 
Under your breath 
Under your breath 

Anything that you put on me 
All the things your head needs, You believe 
Read my mind 'Cause I can't say anything 
The sick heart potion 
Two parts pain 
One part true again 

Sometimes I wish I were deaf 
But I hear the words you say 
Under your breath 
Under your breath
