You and I have tried to pretend.. We both exist inside of a dream.. In my life, from beginning to end,. no stranger thing has happened to me.. I went from highland, straight thru the desert..
Every season has a lesson to be learned.. When all the love is piled, pushed aside, and is burned.. No more driving with the top pulled down or laying on the beach..
Livin' in a nightmare. I wake up and you're still there. Gonna tell you what to do. Gonna turn the screw. . I'm wearing my coonskin cap. 'Cause you know that's where it's at.
Well, we got no choice. All the girls and boys. Makin' all that noise. 'Cause they found new toys. . Well, we can't salute ya. Can't find a flag. If that don't suit ya.
Can you hear yourself, free yourself, fuck yourself. Can you fix yourself, fill yourself, trust yourself. Cloud your vision. And just medicate yourself and just separate yourself.
One time in my life. It won't be such a pain. Just a couple of guys with the vibe in every way. We'll put it together, shuttin' it down. And you'll watch me pull the lever.
Come step up to the plate. And please allow me to demonstrate. As you step into the rear of the sideshow bus. Strap it on 'cause it's time to get a head rush.
Make this clear in a statement. And break me here through the pavement. And I can trust in the silence. And I'll adjust to the violence inside I can't deny.
One more time to dig into my skin. You'll ignite, so I can burn again. Sick like that, you'd better walk away. Set to snap before I demonstrate. . Played on this, you split me open.
Spill these lies all you ever want to do is. Fill these eyes with tears it's all you need to do to. Magnify everything about you is to justify. To feel my pride.
She says, "I've got something to say". She knows, that what she says will change everything. She's laid, through too many sleepless nights. She's cryin', she's cryin', she's cryin'.
Rubber headed motor junky, run me down. And try to stomp me. Throw my life away, and Ill be worthless. Just like you. . Somewhere now a babys crying. Down the road his mothers dying.
If you could step into my head. Tell me, would you still know me?. And if you woke up in my bed. Tell me, would you hold me?. . Or would you simply let it lie?.
The open wound she hides. She just keeps it bundled up and never lets it show. She can't take much more of this but she can't let it go. That's okay, she don't want the world.
she walks through the city. noone recognises her face. they don't want her pity. noone ever mentions her name. she's carried the broken. her scars have no name in her heart.
I don't show feelings. I don't share them well. But I own scars that show and they've got a story to tell. I bite my lip and walk away. And I know what I should say.
So smile the sixty mile smile. Headlight apocalypse. Sunrise, just for a while. Inject a drip. . Sixty mile smile. (On and on and on and on). Sixty mile smile.
So change the ninety-nine. Into a hundred. A crack in your grand design. Coming up under. And take you high over. . Your brightest nova. Until we come again.
In my head, I can get so far away. The colors here are bright, not black or gray. And my imaginary friends, we always get our way. The madness never ends and I just wanna stay.
