She mixes you up and makes you come down. And I'm gone enough to fall for that now. She's only cool tonight and I've lost your sight. But that lullaby can never get me home.
She picked me out of the millions. Thumbing an OED. Dressed me down to civilian. Cracked the code on the Rosetta Stone. Said the word for alone is "alone".
She used to love me and that was such an obstacle. Running around in the bad hand me downs of someone else's girl. She's using my name and making a face.
You run away with my sleep and I'm stuck in here so deep. I had a terrible dream and I can't wake up it seems. In my parallel field, what's imagined is real.
Give yourself away if you want. How did your daddy get so gaunt?. It's a pretty face that you know. . What's a boy to do. When a girl's untrue?. Put your bell on your bike.
Took an exit sign to a world of motel time. Where we walk a crooked line and high is low. Trust your sad MC, time to kill the bar Telly. . When the lights come on you'll see we're still alone.
Alice, can you hear me?. Tonight the sky's not clearing. You'll never see Cassiopeia. You're there at your department. I'm here in your apartment. Another night I'll spend alone.
A devout and well respected man. Woe betide you if you wander from God's plan. Square shouldered, straight as a die. The righteous truth, he never tell you no lies.
No one on the outside. Has heard from me in weeks. Wrapped up in the chaos. Come too far to recede. Try not to feed the fear within. The moon lives in the lining of your skin.
Don't look when you talk to me, yeah. Don't look when you talk to me, oh. Only when you try to make it. Tell me why you try to make it. Make it so hard.
This coincidence is all that I can take. I just really want to impress you. Yeah I just wanna impress you, baby. . Took my time and tried to make sense of it all.
You don't, you don't, you don't. . Tell me who's the love that follows along. Tell me, tell me who's the love. One you know you'll never need. . And tell me who's the one number for fun.
All this time I was thinkin' about technicolor super 8.. Like those old films,. Blue waves,. The white text over it.. Like those crystal waters submerged,.
VERSE 1:. Have you ever been alone. No one to lean on. You look into the mirror. With tears rolling down your face. Have you ever cried. No one to pacify you.
You stand above me. Promising death. I lie alone on my side. Bled slippers at my side. While eternity cycles wildly inside me. You stand above me. Promising death.
Mama, take this badge off o' me. I can't use it anymore. It's gettin' dark, much too dark to see you. I feel I'm knockin' on Heaven's door. . Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door.
