Shrinking Heads In The Sunset Lyrics - Elysian Fields

Well you're caught in the headlights 

Don't know which way to turn 

And you're going down quickly 

With my silencer 

I commandeer your heart 

And it's making you mad 

It's dissolving your cool resolve 

Though you haven't been had 

Don't you wish you were 

Tired of retiring in your mousetrap mind 

Don't you wish you were 

Making it through the moment 

When you were my kind 

Had a look at your soul 

And it caught you off guard 

And you can never take that back 

And it's making it hard 

Oh you wish you could hate me 

But it's not in your nature 

You'd rather debate me 

And to me that's absurd 

Don't you wish you were 

Tired of conspiring with your mousetrap mind 

Don't you wish you were 

Making it through the moment 

When you were my kind 

Don't you wish you were 

Drinking up all your doing 

So you could crawl right back 

Don't you wish you were 

Shrinking heads in the sunset 

You old sad sack 

Bite down man, be strong 

We're all impressed 

The way you hold your breath so long 

In time you'll turn blue 

Won't be the only one who's really seeing you 

Conspiring with your mousetrap mind 

Don't you wish you were 

Making it through the moment 

When you were my kind 

Don't you wish you were 

Drinking up all your doing 

So you could crawl right back 

Don't you wish you were 

Shrinking heads in the sunset 

You old sad sack 

Don't you wish you were 

Making it through 

The moment
