i wanna live in the pretty sun. but daylight just makes me numb. so i cover up my scars. with velvet drapes that kill rock stars. change my mood. lick my wounds.
It matters to me, took a long time to get here. But if it would have been easy I would not have cared. Like a tropical forest, like a cop on the beat.
Up and up and up I climb. When I came up I was so far behind. My head takes a lickin' but my heart keeps on tickin' just the same. Always startin' over but somehow I always know where to begin.
He was leading us through the dark. He was saying that love goes on. I was wanting some ice cream. He knew exactly what I meant. . From the driver's seat in the dark.
Remember when you were seventeen. You's goin' crazy, you know what I mean. It wasn't that long ago in the grand scheme of things. It wasn't that long ago, you think you're so much smarter now.
Tropics. . Off the map. Thru the glass ceiling. On the right path. Out of body for the first time. In a long time. The right time. Window to another world.
...if you touch me, well i just think i'll scream. cuz it's been so long, since someone challenged me.. and made me think... about the way things are....
Touch me Im going to scream if you dont. Inside I ( ?) have the feeling that you wont. . I know it sounds confusing. But it makes a lot of sense. Row a boat across the ocean.
We can get down, baby. Down, down, down, uh. When you come around, baby. We can get down. . We be gettin' down, baby. Down, down, down, uh. We can get down, baby.
I had a bunch of things that I want to say. They said a hundred times, a hundred ways but. This is from me to you. [Incomprehensible]. . My heart doesn't have to hurt no more.
You never say enough. Woohoo I said too much. Come on open up. Woohoo I must stay shut. Well it's a thin line between lovin'. And wastin' my time. Thin line.
Somebody stole my lighter. And where it God is higher. I was another boy. Down in another town. Armed with casino bars. Tight whores and Tinseltown. .
Why's it so strange when they say. That the world's movin' upwards?. Why's it surreal when my hands. Feel they can't roll the dice?. Why's it so great just to wake every day.
Stolen as the war's begun, this time your soul is my one. Stolen as the war's begun, this time your soul is my one. . I belong to a race of robots, drowning out my one.
Trapped in gasoline, a lizard on a string. No one ever screams any more. Trapped in gasoline, a lizard on a string. No one ever screams any more. . It's called the dark, it's not a sunny day for the dark.
It's a bad idea to go down to the pier by yourself after dark. Bad idea 'cause they're down on their luck. And they've lost touch with their bleeding hearts.
Really didn't think us gonna make it. Really didn't think us gonna make it this way. Put on my robot face. Had my emotions way far away from me. . Oh, you really saw my naked heart.
Slowly, you stroll over where I sit,. you strain crystals but now im one within.. Sweetheart, lover, words you use for me,. I yearn to get you forever, to get you into me..
Strangulation, I don't wanna feel a thing. When your hands close tight around my neck. And force the air that I breathe. . I don't wanna feel a thing.
So, I do believe. None of this is physical. At least not to me. So, I do believe. That anywhere it goes. It's always with me. It's not the dream. That makes you weak.
