Recorded live at Bill's Records in Dallas, TX by PAO Productions.

lyrics

I don't want to hear what you're not saying
I won't supply the words that you can't speak
You fired seven rounds while I was aiming
And all I know now is I can't breathe

Each shot's still echoing without a sound
And I can't see anything, but I can feel the ground

CHORUS
Where did you go?
Whose arms have I been running to?
And when it got cold
Whose jacket kept me warm?
Now the rain's pouring down
And I am soaked right through
I might be shivering alone
But this I know
You can't take me home

I've been driving 'round searching for answers
Just going by the places that we've been
And everything looks colder in December
But this chill is buried deep beneath my skin

The lights are brighter now; the wind bites back
The grin that lit the town just fades to black

CHORUS
Where did you go?
Whose arms have I been running to?
And when it got cold
Whose jacket kept me warm?
Now the rain's pouring down
And I am soaked right through
I might be shivering alone
But this I know
You can't take me home

And when we see the tree we carved our names in
I realize the scars outlast the fight
So I'll open the door to let the rain in
And you can shake your fists up at the sky

CHORUS
Where did you go?
Whose arms have I been running to?
And when it got cold
Whose jacket kept me warm?
Now the rain's pouring down
And I am soaked right through
I might be shivering alone
But this I know
You can't take me home
