I know there's a man who can sell time. I can take it away and say that it's mine. He smiles from a distance and lives in a tree. Holding out a welcome hand, a fist for you and me.
[Verse 1]. We were the French club dropouts. But we never got excused from class. The secretary must have been high. To turn a blind eye on us sneaking out back.
Falseness has grown. Blinding witnesses and taking control. Your sacrifice, a sadistic performance is on. Run from the madness. This obsession feels like home.
Horrendous moments dwelling in our mind. They're not kind. Trample upon the pure things that we used to carry. Participate from screens that fade away, far away.
You've done too much, much too young. Now you're married with a kid when you could be having fun with me. You've done too much, much too young. Now you're married with a son when you should be having fun with me.
Boy me a' fie go leave that town. Here ya know 'cause it's too hot. . Too hot, this town is too hot. Now they're calllin' for their guns. About to spoil the rude boys funs.
I lost track of time, remind me how it started. A motorcade of kids all headed to a party. I still had a best friend, didn't have ambitions. Real talk, when did it become a competition?.
I tasted a hundred friends of mine on your lips. I never saw a single sunset out on that strip. If it was love, if it was love. Then let me know. . Our hearts were destroyed but our bodies survive.
Did you listen to his stories?. He had some stories that would change your life. This doesn't have to be the saddest day. For we can always hold the brilliant memories.
From the top of buildings you'll shout. To the kids in the street below. And you'll know. She swings with the ease of a hammer. From the edge down to the ground.
When you fall. You fall on your own. Let it slip away. . When you land. You land on your own. Let it slip away. . Realize you try to find something. A branch to hold onto.
Alone, it could be alright. I'll make it alright. Have to get by. Have to get by on my own. . Today I found this moment. I leaned in and stole it. And this is the start.
Piece this together and it's always a fight. This puzzle's intact and you're always right. The sky could fall, the bliss of beginning replaced with an end.
This home, this place. It turns its back on time and space. And we hope and you pray. But today is still today. . Oh, we ran ourselves. Ragged. And all these broken backs.
There's angels hiding under. Tressles above the ground. They hover there forever. So they can't be found. . Trains are speeding over. Over the frozen lakes.
There's too much confusion today. How can I assure it's to shy away. And he blew his brains out with a pistol I say. To cover his arse or make a point someway.
Just when you've found your way to the boiler room. They come to dig you out with picks and shovels and acetylene torches. . I couldn't do nothing but watch as her tears fell on fresh fruit.
I drove my car to your house and. Watched you undress yourself. Through the window pane, in the weirdest way. He puts his hands on you. The way that I used to.
Look at me my friend, I'm afraid to lose again,. Everything I know is condemned,. This I know, this I know, this I know.. . Get away from the blues,. Get some new climbin shoes..
