Early morning rain crashing upon
My rooftop and my brain
Woke up in my clothes
Feeling like Im insane
The hours pass like days
Like days

And now youre on the firing squad
I throw my hands up I surrender
I dont want to be a fraud
I dont want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightening rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up I surrender

I see your eyes hear your voice
Outside my window
Calling for me in a time of trouble
And you know Id be there
Yes you know Id be there

And now youre on the firing squad
I throw my hands up I surrender
I dont want to be a fraud
I dont want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightening rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up I surrender

And I stand
And I watch
As the streetcars rolling
As the wind is blowing
And theres no way of knowing now

And now youre on the firing squad
I throw my hands up I surrender
I dont want to be a fraud
I dont want to be the pretender
And I was like a lightening rod
I was always your defender
We were both right and wrong
I throw my hands up I surrender
