Have mercy on me, sir. Allow me to impose on you. I have no place to stay. And my bones are cold right through. I will tell you a story. Of a man and his family.
Honey sweet and discreet. Your special friend is obsolete. You got stranded, you broke down. I thought I was found. . Don't want it right now. Don't need it right now.
Said you'd always feel like. Then everything just changed in the blink of an eye. And I could never leave like. There was anything left to leave behind.
Lover, lover, goodbye. So slowly goes the night. I trace the print of your body with my hand. Like the map of some forbidden land. I trace the ghosts of your bones.
So you spread yourself around it. Mondays from here out. Heard it was like hell on you. Got tired of finding out. Who will take this shit like I did. Get beside the bed.
When everything comes back around. And leaves you lying on the ground. The pictures fade but not the face. And no one's there to take your place. . Just don't be shy, go ahead and try to change.
Fine, fine, I needed to unwind. Don't say another word. I know your lines from here. . I'm pillar of wood and from the score. A special burnt bread, orange and more.
Once she lay open like a road. Carbed apart the madness that I stumbled from. But she fell away. She fell away. Shed me like a skin. She fell away. Left me holding everything.
In a world that fades away. I need to be awake. I need to see the sunrise in this picture perfect day. . and everything's a mess. no one here makes perfect sense of this.
O say goodbye to the little girl tree.. O you know that I must say goodbye. To the little girl tree.. This wall I built around you. Is made out of stone-lies..
Is she looking straight at me. Or is it my imagination. Some kind of illusion or prestidigitation. I cross the room to a standing ovation. A hesitation at my sudden invitation.
Born of the river,. Born of its never-changing, never-changing murky water. Huck standing like a Saint, upon its deck. If ya wanna catch a Saint,. then bait ja hook, let's take a walk....
I take a pill or two to make me nice for you. Buzz me at 3 am you feel inflicted dirty. It's not called making out. If you are over thirty. . She got the gold mine I got the shaft.
Take a little walk to the edge of town. And go across the tracks. Where the viaduct looms,. Like a bird of doom. As it shifts and cracks. Where secrets lie in the border fires,.
Kung fu tongue spar without a solution. The vintage sign made which ends in confusion. Robert Plant kicking from the Japanese hearses. Goes, "Baby baby" in trebly verses.
I can wait at the canyon's corner and I'm back away. I can see you looking into locuses that ease your mind. Won't peel your cowl back, I'm shaking up and you're stepping down.
People just ain't no good. I think that's well understood. You can see it everywhere you look. People just ain't no good. We were married under cherry trees.
Allergic to all penetration. It's true what they say about you. I know mouth escape route. To [Incomprehensible]. . Wake up it's over, refreshes. Looks like the time waived out on you.

You can never know. Until you give me solid gold. Easy action, rock all over you. I've got the lips that drive you to distraction. . Lied about all the girls you laid.
