Call me a cab and I'll tip the undertaker. That fool couldn't tell a real stiff from a faker. Well I ain't no fool, I just play one on TV. Cause misery loves company.
In the cold hard light of day. Do you like the face you see?. Ain't it hard sometimes to say. That your eyes have atrophied?. Because the heart is a slippery one.
When I was born, I shamed the Dawn, and saw the angels cry. I raised my arms and made the stars tremble in the sky. And when I sang the choirs were humbled.
In your empty bed. You remember every word she said. And every word rings in your head. Except, "I'm Sorry". And when the dark comes down. Upon this stark and sullen town.
You never would believe. The things that I have seen. In my professional career. Well people can be cruel. But honestly I never meant to hurt you. . I'm just a car crash collaborator.
On the corner of Bourbon and Division. Crawling down the crooked streets at dawn. She said, "Don't come back, all is not forgiven". So you fall inside a bottle and a song.
Slung from the hoary heavens. With disbelief suspended. On a shining pendulum of faith. . Hanging half awake and dreaming. Of burning cities gleaming.
Don't wanna waste time, is it a matter of mind?. Don't wanna lose control, I've gotta say, "Goodbye, my love". . We just couldn't get it right, it was a matter of time, oh.
I'm a bad, bad boy. Everybody tells me so. I'm a bad, bad boy. I get clocked with all the wrong faces. . I'm a bad, bad girl. I read it on the bathroom wall.
I can hear you talking, we're doing all the walking. I'm stuck here in the middle at war with good and evil. I can hear you talking, I'm doing all the walking now.
When the moon opens up her eye. And the sun bows down his head. You come stealing softly to my bed. When the dogs chase rabbit dreams. Cats are milking up the fire.
When we roam. Faded rumors that outlast the century. Crazy heroes all painted in glass. Which way to the stars. . I'll be home. In the landscape of a new century.
Tod:. I'm a bad, bad boy. Everybody tells me so. I'm a bad, bad boy. I get caught with all the wrong faces. . Jennifer:. I'm a bad, bad girl. I read it on the bathroom wall.
Now I know what I need to do. Become the man I believe I am. Now I know that I've got to try. Become a man, lay down in the quiet. Love my girl, get a job, feed the world, choose a god.
Well if I was a satellite. I'd watch you when you sleep. And if I was an undertow. I'd drag you to the deep. And if I was a prison. I would hide you in my walls.
We were talking in a field. Feet on the ground. Though my memories often fade there. Oceans apart from where you are. . Comedy all opinions tied. Raise your arms.
Ain't nothing like it. When it's twisting and reeling. They'll put the boot right in your eye. Because when the floor turns into wall. And then the wall becomes the ceiling.
Hello to the world. You decide what you are. Why hide when it rains?. And I can grab hold of love if I want it. . Hello to the world. You decide how far.
Wear the crown made of thorns on the day I was born. By the light of a cold television. And I remember the boss in his uniform. As he marched from the field of vision.
Call the moment good. Dont hurry if you can. See all the houses youd build there. . The sun warms my mind. The moon cools my toes. All of these memories hold meaning.
