[Verse 1]
She stands over the sink, steam curls into the air
Grey like the tendrils of her hair
Running that water a whole lot hotter than most could bear
She doesn't seem to notice or to care
[Refrain]
Says I've got tempered hands
It's really no big deal
The things that used to burn now I hardly feel

[Verse 2]
He comes home from work, a long day in his eyes
It's dark like the smudges from a tyre
She puts dinner on our plates and he don't hesitate to criticise
Shе looks at me with a reassuring smile
[Refrain]
Says I'vе got a tempered mind
It's really no big deal
The words that used to hurt now I hardly feel

[Bridge]
Well is pain as temporary as they say
Or do we become numb waiting for it to go away?

[Verse 3]
She stares out the window from her electric bed
It's clear like a tear yet unshed
I ask her how she's doing and without moving
She say I wish God had taken me instead
'Cause I've got a tempered heart
[Refrain]
It's really no big deal
I used to be in love and now I hardly feel
Oh I used to be in love now I hardly feel

[Outro]
Feel
Feel
