Flower said, "I wish I was a tree". The tree said, "I wish I could be. A different kind of tree". The cat wished that it was a bee. . The turtle wished that it could fly.
So you say you want a love song. One to move your feet onto. I'll sing a real life tune. . So you say you want a love song. One to play your girlfriend with.
Come on love, come on drugs. I need the help, pick me up. I'm feeling low, the alcohol. Is wearing off. . The cocaine wore a hole inside. My bitter soul, my foolish pride.
Take another look outside. Youre lying awake on a stormy night. You never felt like this before. Its only the world knocking at your door. . And you see.
Saw them gathering sticks from the ground. By the thicket while assembling a nest. . On alert for any lingering threat. Building frantically without rest.
My tired eyes. are like. lonely stars. trying to find a little. order in the chaos. . So I take a bus ride. in the afternoon. you all look so happy, and me,.
Tear in my side, I feel it all. Tear in my side, I feel it all. . What it's like to be alive. And then shot down. . Tear in my side, I feel it all. Tear in my side, I feel it all.
[m u s i c]. [v e r s e 1]. It's cold outside i'm bundled up tight waiting for you can you make my wish come true?. on a perfect day the snow falls away with the bright of your lights fall into my heart.
Ive been tryin to reach out, every chance I get. Livin this relationship, over the phone. Ive been feelin strung out, down this lonely road. Find me an airplane, or a midnight train, take me home.
All of the words keep coming. For me to settle down. But I think I heard us falling. Before we hit the ground. So much for my dark takes. Of how we got this far.
When you think you've found something. Worth holding on to. Were you reaching for attention. Hoping she would notice you?. . Collecting bottles and thrown away cans.
I walked a spiraling village one night. Drawn by the word of a bell or a light. Out on the flats saw it rose to a spire. It all becomes clear as the tide falls away.
I knew a guy, I thought he was my first love. But he had to decide between me and the one before. And she stacked it all up, like a house of cards. Said if he didn't come back, he'd find her flattened on the floor.
It's a cold, cold time. It's a cold, cold time. And it makes me wonder. If I'll ever forget. How cold I?. How cold I and the world can be?. . And the line gets drawn.
I've been getting down about all the runaround. About all the pushing and the standing in line. But like my friends say you gotta do it anyway. And it just gets harder when you ask why.
When my daddy lived here, I never worried. When my daddy live here, he read me stories. And I never was afraid when the endings were scary. 'Cause my daddy would say.
The church went down and it didn't go gently. The burning steeple fell right onto Main Street. The old stained glass exploded. Pieces of Jesus at my feet.
You can't tell the truth, not even to yourself. It hurts too much to admit that it's in there. You can lie and dissemble with anyone else. But I know you like I know myself.
Oh, the night (yes, the night). It comes crawlin' in.. It comes crawlin' in, oh it comes crawlin' in.. Well, the night (yes, the night). It comes crawlin' in..
Go down to the gallows at midnight,. With silk draped to cover your face.. Go down to the gallows, they'll soon take my life,. And lay your eyes over the place..
