Another wish didn't work out Another nothing we can scream about All fall down Until the noise around us Breaks down the light that found us everything All fall down She's so tall with her hands up I'm so small whenever she's aroound Someday soon I'm gonna tell her but I'm not twentyone Another dream didn't work out So you found a way to let it out All fall down In the space between the heartbeats Where the head and the heart they don't meet in the need All fall down My girlfriend tells me what people say She's so tall with her hands up I'm so small whenever she's aroound Someday soon I'm gonna tell her but I'm not twentyone I'm not twentyone Another circle I can run around Another dark corner I can get lost in All fall down And if she and if she comes again and scares me I'm gonna conjure up a prayer to be stronger All fall down Girlfriend tell me She's so tall with her hands up And I'm so small whenever she's aroound Someday soon I'm gonna tell her but She's so tall with her hands up I'm so small whenever she's aroound Someday soon I'm gonna tell her but I'm not twentyone I'm not twentyone No I'm not twentyone Someday I'll buy a gun
I'm not courageous I'm everything that they say Fame is outrageous I'm really wasting away I'm your man I'm your genie I'm your junkie I'm your man I'm your maybe I'm your must be Life's a little to intense I'm a little too in pieces If I could I would act like I should act Little misunderstood Rumors are dangerous Don't believe what they say I'm not contagious In time it will fade I'm your man I'm your monkey I'm your magic I'm your man I'm your memory I'm your static Life's a little too intense I am less than perfect The world is too immense I'm a little too in pieces If I could I would act like I should act Little misunderstood Little misunderstood These four walls Scream like sirens Damn this neighborhood I'm so good Life's a little too intense I'm a little too in pieces If I could I would act like I should act Little misunderstood Little misunderstood
He says I need direction I head for the door I take apart his hourglass & fill it up with candy Don't mind suggestions Don't give me anymore Don't get twisted you don't like it you don't buy it Choking on my own lies The boyfriend takes the ring back Leave my finger blue & swollen knock me inside out I'm a little on the dark side Black beauty in my coffee I guess I'll keep on f**king up until I get it right I'm a bad...I'm a bad loser The day is ripe for monsters So I take the dog out The puppy runs away the kind of day I'm getting used to Shitty broken gibson Is all that I've got left now Gonna beat it up until I'm satisfied I'm a bad...I'm a bad loser What've I got what've I got what've I what've I got to lose? What would it take to find the shape to cure me? What do I pay to sell that celluloid rosary? They're right when they say the lion's got the best of me I jump from chair to chair - is anybody satisfied? not me I'm a bad...I'm a bad loser What've I got what've I got what've I what've I got to lose?
I'm so far but it always touches me When I look around at everything I'm missing Run away but it only seems like inches From her sense of intuition
One thing that gets me down again and again I feel like, I'm in the palm of her hands Take away my telephone so she won't call The cafe and the flower stand
She's dragging you down, she's dragging you down She does it like no one's business She's screwing your friends, she's so full of shit She's dragging you, she's so wicked for me
Never to return here She'll have to make that decision I don't know, where she'll be in a year or two or three There's me withdrawn from an addiction
She's dragging you down, she's dragging you down She does it like no one can She's doin' your friends, she's so full of shit She's dragging you, she's so wicked, oh Tabitha
Nothin' really makes sense the azure in the sky never had it on my wish list It caught me by surprise All we needed was a river to follow and fall in
Lay down Athena in your sea of wine Lay down Athena lay down tonight and fall
Looking through the wrong lens with shadows in my eyes You were hiding in the open standing by my side All we needed was a river to follow and dance in
Lay down Athena in your sea of wine Lay down Athena lay down lay down
Crimson river we follow (we collide, we collide) We'll be safe in tomorrow (we glide, we rise, we rise)
Lay down Athena in your sea of wine Lay down Athena Lay down tonight and fall
She eats a lot of candy She bubbles up and sucks you down All that sugar keeps her nasty She's into tossin' spells and cars around
On a sleepy Sunday He crawled in through a window Put a shotgun to her throat and she said "Life's a ball but it's got a lot of angles on it etc"
She rides with her chin down She made Graceland cry She's really into stalking downtown So don't turn your back against the light
On a random Monday Lookin' out of the window See a stick and watch her fly Blah, blah, blah etc
Licorice well look at this I'm bouncin' gumdrops off the wall Off the ceilin' fireball On a rainy Tuesday rats get in through the basement Get your shotgun get your hose, keepin' up with Candy
I am secretly waiting for you And I'm keeping my hands in my pockets As I'm secretly waiting You're secretly saving my life
I am hiding my heart in a bag I'm disguising the sound of my breathing As I'm secretly waiting You're secretly saving my life
What's it gonna take for you to cross that line? What's it gonna take for you to touch both sides? (You cross me out) What's it gonna take for you to read my mind? It's gonna take a miracle and miracles are hard to find
I am open and closing my soul I've been sleeping for 24 years As I'm secretly praying, you're secretly dying to see me I'm dyin' to see you kill me
What's it gonna take for you to cross that line? What's it gonna take for you to touch both sides? (You cross me out) What's it gonna take for you to read my mind? It's gonna take a miracle and miracles are hard to
Find out what it's like in the morning Find out what it's like in the fall Find out about getting in trouble Find out what it's like to love me
What's it gonna take for you to cross that line? What's it gonna take for you to touch both sides? (You cross me out) What's it gonna?
What's it gonna take for you to cross that line? What's it gonna take for you to touch both sides? (You cross me out) What's it gonna take for you to read my mind? It's gonna take a miracle and miracles are so divine
You know he dreams about tornadoes, tumbleweeds, and hurricanes I could blame it on his halos always getting in the way (If I'd known his wings were crooked I'd have pressed them into shape) Hopped a greyhound left his hometown population 1726 and change For 60 bucks a broken suitcase his bad luck was my lucky day Kinda thought we had a mess of time I mistook him for a guy I knew with his shabby hat and his southern eyes When he played he chipped a piece of me away I stood there hypnotized Here's a lousy lullaby Are you warm in winter are there still planets in your eyes? I'm your ivory valentine May the angels keep you laughing do I have to be alright? I thought we had a mess of time Dammit how could I? If I seem a little scatttered there's an empty place Where something used to beat Definitly shattered like some stupid piece of china How pathetic of me Here's a lousy lullaby I practice every day so I can keep you memorized I'm your heartless valentine May God forgive me I wish you'd melted in some other sucker's lousy lullaby
