It was never my intention. To blindly feed the boy-girl game. I know romance isn't everything. But I'm obsessing just the same. . Because today I don't feel worthy.
Pick a habit you can trust. We all need the reassurance. Blanket stretched across the window. A friend to walk you through it all. . That could change if I was angry.
It's a joke I play three times a day. To sticky magazines. Tired wrist and greasy fist. Erotic sister scenes. . Bitter, unreal, too worn out to feel. Resisting, grasping and never lasting.
Could I hold on, or should I hold on to you?. Ask, I'll tell the truth, there's nothing I should hide. And if I move to slow, if you're bored I need to know.
You were right, I was battling you. Trying to prove myself. I tried to bury you with guilt. I wanted to prove you wrong. . I've got nothing better to do.
Close my eyes. Feel the fire. Overwhelming fear and desire. (so hard for you to stem the tide). Wavering heart, the flames growing higher. (grab your bottle get your coat and hide).
On my way to temporary dream. On my way to temporary dream. Temporary dream. . On my way to temporary dream. On my way to temporary dream. Temporary, temporary, temporary dream.
In blase and dream away. Nothin' grew, so mark it bland (?). I'm sad, fuck sad, I'm teary-eyed. Want a lovey-dovey honey, that's what I like. I'm the finest drifter you'll ever meet.
Come on girl, tell me something. Tell me something I don't know. Little girl, should I be scared the way I am?. Does it feel OK to stand so close to me?.
I've seen a young man's breaking heart. I've seen the evil on my shoulders. I've held self righteous though. I never could see straight. And all this from a land.
And when she hurts herself. How she'll be hurting me. My Constantine. Tonight the sky's on fire. And spills its grief for yoiu. Cries out for you. I always shamed the bleeding heart.
Into the ring, let the games begin, I call you out. You stomp me down and make me want to scream and shout. . Temptation. Gets the best of me. Salvation.
There's an empty place beside me. When I'm walking down the street. . That's the place where you used to walk. The place where you held my hand. Now I reach and all I touch is space.
Don't try and understand me, you never could do that. Ah, and in the end you'd wind up being hurt. I'm a man with too many problems that keep pounding on my brain.
Don't hold me down. I'm not supposed to feel like. I've been holding on. For something else. . I kept my feet on the ground. Too scared to see how far this could take me.
Street lights carry me home tonight. And this will be the last time. That I ever make this drive. We haven't talked in days. And it's clear what you are trying to say.
I'm sorry for the temper I let get away from me. I said a lot of things I didn't really mean. You always wore your heart on the outside. 'Cause this was just a mess we could never really hide.
You've got some nerve. And I'm a nervous wreck. And you're scared to death. These are fighting words. I'm getting off my chest. . God bless you and your secrets.
Write me a song I can sing all year long, and that'll send me to sleep. When there's no one beside me that I need, and the trees have all lost their leaves.
