Stairs to nowhere climb. I take them, all the time. Crawling on my knees. Walking that old fine line. . And when I'm alone and scared. I think of little rhymes.
What explodes like a fractal, pops like a light bulb. Looks really awful at four in the morning. Moves with a dead stare, coils around your ankles. Fangs long as neckties and strikes without warning?.
Has she found a way to make her man work out rite?. And has she found a way to let her man into her life?. Has she found a way to teach her man some control?.
On a summer day, you can hear her call. But in a funny way she reminds you of the fall. On a summer day, you can hear her call. But in a funny way she reminds you of the fall.
You don't need much money to ride the silver train. Just enough to keep yourself from sleeping in the rain. Satellites are chasing silver clouds away.
Time, all the long red lines, that take control. Of all the smoke-like streams that flow into your dreams. That big blue open sea, that can't be crossed.
Clouds taste better than dirt. That's why you must evaporate above the earth. Pressure can make the clouds burst. Soon you wind up in the mud just where you were.
In the morning your face cracks and falls to the sea. The sun follows your step and leads you back to me. You keep telling yourself that you're here but you're not alone.
The first hint of morning, someone's snoring. The cat upstairs is yawning and calling her name. She's in a playful way and a venomous mood. When she bites my ear, it's just for fun.
Well, I got us on a highway, I got us in a car. Got us going faster than we've ever gone before. I got us on a highway, I got us in a car. Got us going faster than we've ever gone before.
[anyone want to help with this one? a lot of mumbling/scat.]. . I hold you in my arm.... .... now I know.... .... hold you in my arm. then I feel your charm.
I've seen you eat away. Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine. I've seen you fritter away. Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine.
I can see my fantasy, I'm so consumed in it.. What I see takes over me, I'm blind beyond repair.. It takes a hold on me so tight--a weight that does not give..
Hey!. . Hey!. . Hey!. Nothing you can say. Nothings gonna change what you've done to me. Now its time to shine. I'm gonna take what's mine. Take what's mine.
Everywhere you turn you are. Surrounded by the sound of winter's song. Everything is frozen and, only the swans. Have chosen to be strong. . The skies are all a big commotion.
There are some things that I can't face. There are some dreams that I can't chase. There is nothing that I can't face. There is no dream that I can't chase.
There's a little part of you. Faraway from cars. Faraway from cash. That's faraway from war. Faraway from tears. And faraway from the past. Faraway from here.
To me-Another lie. Cause lies are what you're made of. Amuse me-To think that I can't see through what you've become. . Now we'll make you a promise. I will promise you.
And so with the explorers on my heels. I started to wheel. Stepped aside stone walls, I was sick of it all. And so I set my sail on your coattails and your warm shawl.
