You can't feel the heat. Until you hold your hand. Over the flame. You have to cross the line. Just to remember. Where it lays. . You won't know your worth now, son.
It kills me not to know this but I've all but just forgotten. . What the color of her eyes were and her scars or how she got them. As the telling signs of age rain down a single tear is dropping.
Tell me what I'm supposed to do. With all these left over feelings of you. 'Cause I don't know. . And tell me how I'm supposed to feel. When all these nightmares become real.
So please don't ask me how. I ended up at my wits end. And breaking down. Pages torn from books we never read. 'Cause we're plugged into this grid. Don't pull this plug right now.
All these days. I'll forever cherish. In the confines of my heart. The faces of ten years ago. Like fingerprints on my heart. How can I breathe when fear chokes my every breath?.
Hold on, slow down, again from the top now. And tell me everything. I know I've been gone for, what seems like forever. But I'm here now waiting. . To convince you that I'm not a ghost or a stranger.
Spoken. It is, in the end, whatever the Hell I want it to be. And when I'm through with it, it's gonna blow a hole. This wide, straight through the worlds own idea of itself.
Warm yourself by the fire, son. And the morning will come soon. I'll tell you stories of a better time. In a place that we once knew. . Before we packed our bags.
To the sound of a heartbeat pounding away. To the rhythm of the awful rusted machines. We toss and turn but dont sleep. Each breath we take makes us thieves.
To the sound of a heartbeat pounding away. To the rhythym of the awful rusty machines. We toss and turn but don't sleep. Each breath we take makes us thieves.
My god is better than yours. And the walls of my house are so thick I hear nothing at all. I followed you out in the storm but it carried you off. And I burned every picture of yours, was that not enough?.
To all you people standing proud. Thinking you know what I'm about. I think you can fuck yourself. . From your safe distance in this crowd. That's when your voice becomes so loud.
One last thing I beg you please, just before you go. I've watched you fly on paper wings half way round the world. Until they burned up in the atmosphere and sent you spiraling down.
Fighting back the impulse. Turn my head and close my eyes. Spending these nights awake and cold and paralyzed. Wonder how we got this far and. Never realized the common thread that binds our lives.
I'm about to have a nervous breakdown. My head really hurts. And if I don't find a way out of here. I'm gonna go berserk cause. I'm crazy and I'm hurt.
Like a new day rising. Like a calm before the storm. Like fog lifting from valleys. On a sleeping forest floor. Eyes open slowly as the dust is shaken off.
We're not the first, I hope we're not the last. 'Cause I know we're all ready for that adult crash. The time is so little, the time belongs to us. Why is everybody in such a fucking rush?.
Love like a needle full of methadone,. Potent but not real, left you wanting more.. Lipstick track marks bleeding wet,. like Montagues and Capulets,. For us child, the stars refuse to shine..
Woah, woah.. . Bang, bang go the coffin nails, like a breath exhaled,. Then gone forever.. It seems like just yesterday, how did I miss the red flags raised?.
This time, this time. . Making Christmas. . Making Christmas. . Making Christmas, making Christmas. Is so fine. . It's ours this time. And won't the children be surprised.
