Settle in for the night. It's the quiet life you've been waiting for. And all that you wanted will be there. Don't you believe me?. Don't you believe me anymore?.
Concentrate, don't you know. These are the days that leave you empty. They're leaving you cold. And say to me, as we grow old. These are the days that last forever.
The drama, detention, suspension of disbelief. The constant attention offers you no relief. Your pain is not special, sentence is soaked in deceit. It's inconsequential and you sing so sweetly.
There is hope for us. There is distance between you and I. We have just enough. And it comes as no surprise. . I was in between. You were matches and kerosene.
So you call home for Christmas. It's for certain that they'll cross you off the list. And you can't go home and you won't stay here. Refusing to believe a single word they hear.
The decks just build and break. Everybody takes. Here I stand waiting to be moved. . Just a problem solved. Slowly it dissovles. The crowd that I'm passing through.
It's the car in the crash and it all kicks your ass. You can't breathe. It's the start and the stall and the shame of it all. It's something deceiving.
So that I. Am falling asleep, exhaust in my eyes. Well those angry hands. They know they're damned. If I should die before I wake. Make no mistake. Well I'm dying anyway.
There was a guy making a plan. Find a girl, and she'd understand. And say, "Please don't worry". . This one was right, that was the thing. Closing your eyes, see wedding rings.
Everyday is a day that I can say. I keep my head above the waves. The news I just received so shamelessly deceived. The truth just seems to hurt a little more and more.
You could kill me with kindness. Could you cure me from blindness?. And if not, then help me medicate. . It seems I caught cold. When I was two years old.
Left your secret identity by the kitchen sink. Poisoned all this composure running in too deep. But I just sing. I've got all that I am needing. I've got all the life I'm breathing.
Say, say you want to go, well, then don't hesitate. It's been so long since you've been clear on anything. Lovers and police pull you back every time.
When the world is ready to fall on your little shoulders. And, when you're feeling lonely and small,. You need somebody there to hold you;. You can call out my name.
When I found this my language in a way I began to speak. my soul was free on a gust of inspiration. she was soaring over the walls built with shame. self doubt, and a midnight curfew.
I don't want you to hold me tight. Till you're mine to hold. And I don't even want you to stay all night. Just until the moon turns cold. . All I need is black roses.
Frankly I'm not impressed. With the issue you've undressed. And you never come around. Little fingers creep up and under my neck tie. . You can bury me with your bullets and your smile.
Baby, I was talkin' all night long. Tryin' to take it home long distance. I guess I lost my connection. I heard you slip away. . And then it came in loud and clear.
Wake up in red sheets. Smell the day. Taste the salt. Your fingertips are hieroglyphics. Waiting to behave themselves. And I'll not try. As ancient as we are.
Yeah, so Ill be on my way. With only memories to fade. And all I carry with me. All the things I never see. Im gonna look now. . If I jump and fall and land.
