I'll try anything once 'cause that's my choice
Ain't got time for jokin' getting straight to the point
Drive a hard, hard bargain you get closer to the bone
If you're thinkin' what I'm thinkin' you don't wanna be alone
I'm in heaven when I'm lovin' you
I'm in heaven tell you what we'll do
Down in the passion pit
Where everyone gets a hit
Down in the passion pit
Where everything seems to fit
You know the tough get goin' when the goin' gets tough
I'm looking for some lovin', I can't seem to get enough
Too much temptation it's drivin' me mad
Well you been good baby, I'll be bad
I'm in heaven when I'm lovin' you
I'm in heaven tell you what we'll do
Down in the passion pit
Where everyone gets a hit
Down in the passion pit
Where everyone gets a hit
I'm in heaven when I'm lovin' you
I'm in heaven tell you what we'll do
Down in the passion pit
Where everyone gets a hit
Down in the passion pit
Where everything seems to fit
Down in the passion pit
The passion pit
Down in the passion pit

When I came down the sun poured into me
I shook em up, the walls came crumbling
my fists kept trembling with these salty wounds
my stolen gold inside the emperors tomb
now baby wait looks like a lovely face
I built this cardboard neighborhoods disgrace
who let it said that you're my favorite sphere
within the confines of such chemistry
Let this be our little secrets
No one needs to know were feeling
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and I feel it in me
Up and up I keep on coming
higher and higher and higher
higher and higher and higher
Higher ...
It's the way I see everything I need
It's the way to be
Let this be our little secrets
No one needs to know were feeling
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and I feel it in me
Up and up I keep on coming
higher and higher and higher
higher and higher and higher

Some day you'll see
Surrounded by angels
Floating atop of the sea
On banded knees
Don't go where they go
Don't sing all the songs they sing
[Chorus]
Nobody knows you the way you know you
But I think I do
But I thought I knew
Yeah, I thought I knew
Nobody knows you the way you know you
But I think I do
But I thought I knew
Yeah, I thought I knew
Between these walls
Her back, strange glimpse, casts shadows frighteningly tall
I slow to a crawl
I jump and I yell but she hears nothing at all
[Chorus]
Nobody knows you the way you know you
But I think I do
But I thought I knew
Yeah, I thought I knew
Nobody knows you the way you know you
But I think I do
But I thought I knew
Yeah, I thought I knew
Stay, stay the same
'Cause everything else will change
And I've always been to blame
So please just stay the same
The currents pull me in
The tide has reached my chin
The seaweed tickles skin
Just let the water win
I'm freezing to the bone
You'll never be at home
Just watch, you're running out
Just watch your body go
Nobody knows you the way you know you
But I think I do
But I thought I knew
Yeah, I thought I knew
Nobody knows you the way you know you
But I think I do
But I thought I knew

Dear friend, as you know
Your flowers are withering
Your mother's gone missing
Your leaves have drifted away
But the clouds are clearing up
And I've come reveling
Burning incandescently
Like a bastard on the burning sea
You're just like your father
Buried deep under the water
You're resting on your laurels
And stepping on my toes
Whose side are you on?
What side is this anyways?
Put down your sword and crown
Come lay with me on the ground
You come beating like moth's wings
Spastic and violently
Whipping me into a storm
Shaking me down to the core
But you've run away from me
And you've left me shimmering
Like diamond wedding rings

Oh mercy, in the leaves so green that brush against my hands
Let the wind sing us our love songs as we sift within your sands
Don't answer any prayers they have, just lift our callous hearts

When I came down the dawn poured into me
I shook 'em up the walls came crumbling
My thin skin trembling with these salty wounds
My stolen gold inside the emperor's tomb
Now painting rainbows on my ugly face
I build this cardboard neighborhood's disgrace
But I ascend and serve my feverish need
Within the confines of such chemistry
It's the way I see
Everything I need
It's no way to be
Let this be our little secret
No one needs to know we're feeling
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive, oh, I feel it in me
Up and up we keep on climbing
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
My face blew up at such a casual sight
The smattered colors of ecstatic fright
The rush above me to oblivion
Outlining wet sidewalks in halogen
Have you ever felt so goddamned strong?
How come it takes some people so damn long?
He turned to squeeze the lemon juice to rain
The citrus drawing out the scene in stains
Watch the basin drain
As your lifelines wane
And you can't explain
As your friends complain
You've caused all this pain
And you proudly shamed
Your whole family's name
Let this be our little secret
No one needs to know we're feeling
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive, oh, I feel it in me
Up and up we keep on climbing
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
Mother, I can tell what you've been thinking
Staring at the stars on your ceiling
Thinking once there was power that you were wielding
But now I've hit the mark, stabbing at the dark
And I cannot help but ignore the people staring at my scars
Let this be our little secret
No one needs to know we're feeling
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive, oh, I feel it in me
Up and up we keep on climbing
Higher and higher and higher

Sorry I couldn't be there I was tied to a locking chair
I was beat down to a... rocking back and forth somewhere
If you knew, if you saw...
Then my laugh was bound and... on a bush by the shore
But there is no, no, no easy when the time runs slow
The things you know
Run, run, run, run they say they think they know exactly so
Chorus:
It's alright, it's alright
Am I the only one who sees us fine?
What are we? Who are they?
Who says... don't deserve to care?
But it's enough, it's enough we don't stand a chance
So long we stay around and...
It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair
Still I'm the only one who seems to care
It's funny being funny, makes you feel
Makes you feel... up and running
When your past lingers like rain clouds casting shadows below
I could live with so many birds
I take all your hope and...
But there us no one... I am take me for that petty little rose
I used to glow, glow, glow, glow
Inside a life to show
A life they know
They're slow, slow... never know where I go!
Chorus:
It's alright, it's alright
Am I the only one who sees just fine?
What are we? Who are they?
Who says... don't deserve to care?
But it's enough, it's enough we don't stand a chance
So long we stay around and just don't...
It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair
Still I'm the only one who seems to care
I know that it's only something
I'm just working with what I've been giving
It's not my fault, I'm happy
Don't call me crazy, I'm happy!
Chorus:
It's alright, it's alright
Am I the only one who sees just fine?
What are we? Who are they?
Who says those... don't deserve to care?
But it's enough, it's enough we don't stand a chance
So long we stay around and just don't...
It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair

Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
I'm fine
I'll be fine until the morning comes
Then unmask me in the blistering sun
Oh, let me go
Just let me go
Just let me go
Or ill
Burst in front of your eyes
Then collect myself from the ground
And when I go
And when I go
Just let me go
Like a light
Flickering out in the skies
Lost as fast as was found
Everything is easy when you've never had to choose
But the balance has shifted and we're forced to lose
Like the sun and the moon, I will circle you 'til you bloom
I will crush, I will maul, I will burn until I get to you
Lay low
Don't let me know when it's real
Will they quietly follow me here?
Take me as their own?
Now I will hold you I will keep you
I'll control my love
Until it folds in my hands
But I'll build it back to the top
Everything is easy when you've never had to choose
But the balance has shifted and we're forced to lose
Like the sun and the moon, I will circle you 'til you bloom
I will crush, I will maul, I will burn until I get to you
Feel it rain
We're alive

Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems
I know I felt like this before
But now I’m feeling it even more
Because it came from you
Then I open up and see
The person fumbling here is me
A different way to be
I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
They’ll come true, impossible not to do
Impossible not to do
Now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don’t hurt me
For what I couldn’t find
Talk to me amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You’re everything to me
Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
’cause you’re a dream to me

That you never leave
Ooo ohooo ooo
Never
That you never would belive
That you never
Never
Well you're wrapped up in a blanket
And you're staring at the floor
The conversation's moderated
By the noisy street below
I never wanna hurt you baby
I'm just anost with the name and the price
And now I'm drunken then before then
Told me drinking doesn't make me nice
You never know where some people will go
Yes some people been hurting me
You can tell by the look, by the slightest clue
Can the night go in a blink of an eye
Well then I'll say what they say
And I'll do what they do
But it doesn't mean a god damn thing
You can listen if you want, you can listen if you don't
Get a talk, yell and even sing
Everybody now
Oo ooh ooo
The come sing into the window, sing into the chains
Yea they sing into the bright spring leafs
Everybody now
Ooo ooh ooo
Yea I love you and I need you
But someday you're gonna need to find some other place to go
That you never leave
Ooo ohooo ooo
Never
That you never would belive
That you never
Never
Now you're standing in the kitchen
And you're pouring out my drink
And there is a very obvious difference
And is that one of us can fake (?)
If there is a bump in the road yea you'd fix it
But for me I just gonna...
But tonight you got me cornered
And I hadn't got a place to go
You never know where some people will go
Yes some people been hurting me
You can tell by the look, by the slightest clue
Can the night go in a blink of an eye
Well then I'll say what they say
And I'll do what they do
But it doesn't mean a god damn thing
You can listen if you want, you can listen if you don't
Get a talk, yell and even sing
Everybody now
Oo ooh ooo
The come sing into the window, sing into the chains
Yea they sing into the bright spring leafs
Everybody now
Oo ooh ooo
Oo ooh ooo
Singing loud
Oo ooh ooo
Oo ooh ooo
Singing loud
Yea they love you when they need you
But someday you're gonna need to find some other place to go
That you never leave
Ooo ohooo ooo
Never leave you alone
Stay...

that was our fifth song,
and i hope you enjoyed it,
now this would be our best song you have ever heard,
the dirt bikes going on stage. thank you.
you're gonna drive me crazy
you're gonna drive me mad
you got an angel on your shoulder
makin hairpins outta glass
i believe in believing
the things that we don't see
and the skin violin is where the neighbors wont read meals
and the family heirloom jewelery
with sets and heaps of thieves
will cast down things
that you've never even
seen like the gods
like the glory like the stories
that your fathers set before you
ride the tiger round the kingdom
oh no oh no
oh no there's a meeting in the canyons
oh no this is rising to the clouds
you're gonna drive me crazy
you're gonna drive me mad
you got an angel on your shoulder
makin hairpins outta glass
baby don't be unhappy
baby don't be sad
better things are coming
i swear there's truth in that
i'm shooting off the cannons
of the clouds begin to flow
and the baskets weave ???????? but the ones we'll never keep
just pretend that things are mobile and will never stay put
and the way we were the day we climbed to the top of the
steeple with its people spewing angels out their mouths and letting tables turn to charcoal in the lipstick and the lipstick in the evening(oh no)
oh no we were waving like the trees
oh no then they moved us to the sky
you're gonna drive me crazy
you're gonna drive me mad
you got an angel on your shoulder
makin hairpins outta glass
baby don't be unhappy
baby don't be sad
better things are coming
i swear there's truth in that
two or three times the bell will ring but when when we look for the better things we search for this we have not build i feel it crash upon your skin
i find it hard to believe there more
of these things behind the door
do you miss me like i miss you
do i miss you like you miss me
you're gonna drive me crazy
you're gonna drive me mad
you got an angel on your shoulder
makin hairpins outta glass
baby don't be unhappy
baby don't be sad
better things are coming
i swear there's truth in that

It's gotten cold in here
But asylum warmth draws near
And with a gentle touch of these burdens
And such fears are wiped clear
Who says you ought to stay?
How's this the easier way?
It's far from giving up
Cowards never say enough is enough
And then I'm lifted up
Out of the cribs and towel
The bath begins to drain
And from the floor he prays away
All my pain
Who says that God exists?
We can't see icons or myths, but
Well, I believe in you
Do you believe in me, too?
Get me out
All the things you can't control
Should never destroy the love one holds
I found a place
I found a place
I found a place where we belong
Never be up and down, be in between the whitest clouds
Never did I ever think I'd buy up all the things I've found
'Cause how you keep on living when you're always but a million down

We dug these holes we crawled into
Now they're my home
Now here I cannot feel the wind
Can't feel the rain or cold
And I believe in gentle harmony
How I loathe all this obscenity
Is the way my lifes got to be
by a single opportunity
Look at me, oh look at me
Is this the way I've always been
Oh no, oh no
And now I think that somebody
Would simply come and kidnap me
Oh no, oh no
Everyday I lie awake and pray to God today's the day
Oh no, oh no
Here I am, here I am, when will someone understand
Oh no, oh no
And all at once I feel this
Oh how it clings to me (clings to me)
It reels and calls me towards it
Confounding destiny (destiny)
And I can feel the magnets pinch my hands
The more I run the more I am convinced
A girl who loves is like a precious glimpse
I've coloured all these like the branches twist
Just like we settle in the frothy mist
Look at me, oh look at me
Is this the way I've always been
Oh no, oh no
Now I'm dreaming somebody would simply
Come and kidnap me
Oh no, oh no
Everyday I lie awake and pray to God
Today's the day
Oh no, oh no
Here I am, here I am, when will someone understand
Oh no, oh no
Look at me, oh look at me
Is this the way I've always been
Oh no, oh no
Now I'm dreaming somebody would simply
Come and kidnap me
Oh no, oh no
Everyday I lie awake and pray to God
Today's the day
Oh no, oh no
Here I am, here I am, when will someone understand

All these kinds of places
Make it seem like it's been ages
And tomorrow's sun and buildings scrape the sky.
I love this country dearly
I can feel the latter clearly
But I never thought I'd be alone to try.
Once I was outside Penn station
Selling red and white carnations
We were still alone, my wife and I.
Before we married, saved my money
Brought my dear wife over.
Now I work to bring my family stateside.
Got off the boat, they stayed a while
then scattered 'cross the coast.
Once I'll year I'll see them for a week or so at most.
I took a walk
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
I took a walk
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
Practice isn't perfect
but the market cuts a loss.
I remind myself that times could be much worse.
My wife won't ask me questions-
there's not so much to ask.
And she'll never flaunt around an empty purse.
What's my mother lacking
Just to stay a couple nights
And decided she would stay the rest of her life.
And watch my little children
Play some boardgame in the kitchen
And I sit and pray they never feel my strife.
But then my partner called to say the pension funds were gone
He made some bad investments, now the accounts are overdrawn
I took a walk.
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
I took a walk
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
Honey, it's your son, I think I borrowed just too much.
We had taxes, we had bills, we had a lifestyle to front.
And tonight I swear I'll come home and we'll make love like we're young.
But tomorrow , you'll cook dinner for the neighbors and their kids.
We can rip apart the socialists and all their damn taxes.
You'll see I am no criminal, I'm down on both bad knees.
I'm just too much a coward to admit when I'm in need.
I took a walk.
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
I took a walk
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
I took a walk
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
I took a walk
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)

My eyes
Have once again
Been proven wrong
Your clouds
Your blanket and
My pity song
Hovering on your front lawn
Carry on untilit’s gone
What can I do?
The river’s overrun
We’re swimming in a flood, you know?
I thought I felt your touch
But the water’s rising up
Then I lie naked in a rampage
In the flesh, face to face
With the onset
I forget everything
That’s ever made me
Rise again, now slowly
Leave my memory
What can I do?
The river’s overrun
We’re swimming in a flood, you know?
I thought I felt your touch
But the water’s rising up
Now allmy lovers raise their cups
What can I do?
The river’s overrun
We’re swimming in a flood, you know?
I thought I felt your touch
But the water’s rising up

[Verse 1]
Ballerina, trapped between the
Walls of her own home
Oh God, Kristina
Don't once think that
This madness is my fault alone
Now a nightmare's in the house
Still everyday's another chance
[Hook]
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Let's get married, I'll buy a ring and then we'll
Consecrate this messy love
[Verse 2]
Spinning one beat, 'till I finally
Realize how busy I am
We're both so broken, done long hoping
Is that we'll stumble upon our love again
Just believe in me, Kristina
All these demons, I can beat them
[Hook]
[Bridge]
I caught you dancing quietly
It felt like being somebody else
Oh my friend, it seems like
Our love is too lovely for everyone else

Well he called the whole thing such a wild mistake
he said he didn't mean no harm
well it was a big to-do
but nothing else was new
his past checkered like checkerboards in Central Park
you do good in the light and the bed in the dark
good men are scarce and few
they're always passing through
Oh you mirrored sea
your waves they're haunting me
they're all I see
oh let me be you mirrored sea
your waves they're haunting me
oh mirrored sea leave me be
Born with a chance that everybody takes
with all risk and hardly any reward
bounce off the walls of your teens
like in a pinball machine
Slip-ups in this town are like a sentence to life
like overheard insults or a cheating wife
and then it's down for the count
the lost that won't be found
Oh you mirrored sea
your waves are haunting me
they're all I see
oh let me be you mirrored sea
your waves they're haunting me
oh mirrored sea leave me be
(Everyone's alone...)
Oh you mirrored sea
your waves are haunting me
they're all I see
oh let me be you mirrored sea
your waves are haunting me

So, now we see
Comes burying my burnt remains
These puddles clouds
Oh I, I understand now
But darkness falls like shattered pieces
Dangling, shimmering
Torn and tattered yet crowned
Oh, I'll not be told 'no' to 'no more!'
You must believe to hear me sing these
Messy morsels of my self-assuring love
Oh it's painful kneading
Yes, I lie and I wrangle with prospective angles
That glare me down and face me with all I do wrong
Why do they all look like me?
So I try, and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive
And it's alright
Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
If I had hands I'd hold up high my
Lofty dreams and my alibi's real name
But I've no strength
So I toss and I turn and I spit in the urn
There's a ghost in your eye

You want a love, a love for us
You want a selfless love
That we can always say we trust, oh
Love has always been a mockery
A vision of those scared to be near
Don't wanna love, don't wanna hurt
If all that loneliness requires
Just another's comfort
Better off being alone on the road
Cause the beauty in being alone
Someday we'll all agree, it's not worth making
Another person that is yours for the taking
Or you're hoping you're praying
We'll do more than saying that
Love, love, love, love is just greed
It's almost taking me
And now I can see
Love, love, love, love is just greed
It's selfish and mean
It follows all you lead
Is we really love ourselves, or you love somebody else
A love to us, a love to them
It's just a history of beauty
In self time and time again
Love is not as it's to hide your voice
All this talk of love just turns to noise
Say you want love, a love so tough
But even all this truth don't seem
As though they're adding up, oh
Haven't you already had enough
Was this suffering remind you of?
Someday we'll all agree, it's not worth making
Another person that is yours for the taking
Or you're hoping you're praying
We'll do more than saying that
Love, love, love, love is just greed
It's almost taking me
And now I can see
Love, love, love, love is just greed
It's selfish and mean
It follows all you lead
Is we really love ourselves, or you love somebody else
Love all gone is just another story
Of what's gone sour once was glory, glory
Soon as you... them
Honey could you put your arms around me slow
Tell me things about you that I wouldn't know
And tell me that you love me like you do...
Love, love, love, love is just greed
It's almost taking me
And now I can see
Love, love, love, love is just greed
It's selfish and mean
It follows all you lead

In pastures blue and green
I'll follow you and youll follow me
My fabrics mystery
I'll wave your loyalty in the freezing
Breeze so desperately
Oh and another one comes down
Another one comes down
Another one comes down
Another one comes down
I think I see my life
He bows all slyly and gentle-like
Hes never had the right
But Ive never lived without
His sad and jealous eyes
Oh and another one comes down
Another one comes down
Another one comes down
Another one comes down
Theyd say.
Let your love grow tall.
Let your love grow tall.
Tall as the grass in the meadow?
Or the dunes on the shore?
Like the buildings in the city?
And your children on the floor?
But its the thought that counts
So. Quiet minds dont know their woth
They know what to do
So I'll pray for them and I'll pray for you
Till my face turns blue
Oh and another one comes down
Another one comes down
Another one comes down
Theyd say.
Let your love grow tall.
Let your love grow tall.
Tall as the grass in the meadow?
Or the dunes on the shore?
Like the buildings in the city?
And your children on the floor?
Like the darkness in the forest?
Like my frightened worried eyes?
Or the roots in the soil?

can you remember ever having any fun
cause when it's all set and done
and i always believed me, the world
but now i'm not so sure
oh, oh, oh, oh

yeah go if you want to

and it's love that goes so restless
your whole life's been nothing but this
i won't let you go unless i'll be alright
i'll be alright
i'm so self loathing that it's hard for me to see
reality from what i dream
and no one believes me
no not a single thing
my brain is racing and i feel like i'll explode
when milk and yummy took the load (?)
this rule wasn't made for you

you should go it you want to
yeah go if you want to

Cause I love you in the way that you love me
You're a love, darling
And there's nothing to argue
... everyone is watching what you're doing
Say your head is turning
Maybe you should stop running.
Chorus:
Hideaway, hideaway
Where you'll never say you cannot stay
Come and take my heart away
Someday everything will be OK
You're not strong so you
You can hurt sometimes
You don't mean to
Hurting hurts...
What you're doing to what in your
What you mean to say is that always worth
Take a deep breath as soon as you
Chorus:
Hideaway, hideaway
Where you'll never say you cannot stay
Come and take my heart away
Someday everything will be OK
What's the point to lose
Feel nothing this is life
As we stand...
Chorus:
Hideaway, hideaway
Where you'll never say you cannot stay
Come and take my heart away

My world is astir and sickly
spits out our voices singing,
"tra la la, oh, no no,"
to kingdom come so slightly.
Here in the void in your place,
I twitch and tweak allusion
to sit and stare so blankly
until all hope is used up
Why do I always need to need you when you're fleeing?
Where do you go when I'm around?
What have I done? What have I lost that's so defeating?
And have the nerve to wear the crown?
Na na na na na na, hey! hey! hey! (x4)
Some unguarded room:
a smoky figure fills me full,
makes my head swell in ruin.
My family kneels at the pew,
They nod, "We believe in what you're doing!"
I feel it rise above me,
the western landscape's towering,
and from my shell of a body
the flowers blossom for picking.
Why do I always need to need you when you're fleeing?
Where do you go when I'm around?
What have I done, what have I got that's so defeating?
And have the nerve to wear the crown?
Na na na na na na, hey! hey! hey! (x4)
I've waited and waited for someone to take it.
Don't fight it, don't bother an inch for another.
Don't listen, don't hear them, they're in this together.
I've learned well, now hear me, there's much to be fearing.
I'm used to your absence, your faceless distraction.
I've painted your patterns but found them attractive.
Now I've been leaning towards a life far more candid,
though lead through the dark with your eyes as my candles,
and your life, and my life's directions can wrangle.
And all of a sudden you left me to handle
the reasons that never forbid me to stand tall.
And somehow or somewhere I found out the secret -

I'm on my own where I found you alone
You were caught up in somebody else's mess.
And yes, I drink all those drinks on my own,
My last beat comes in blurry little quest.
And the cloud came deep and slowly
At the end of all, you'd ask me
If I even had a clue where I was.
Well, I don't know your ruth flows
And I'm bringing by the tooth calls
In the night and in they stole, they never was.
It all be done if you're insane,
I wanna know to keep the rain.
Silvia, right back where you came from,
You're a danger, heartbroken in number.
Silvia, no one's gonna tell you when enough's enough
Enough is enough.
Sick to the bar on my steps to my home,
The moon shines through the drapery and leaves.
To her to ignore everyone on my own,
My true love just to feel so made of bricks.
But as my body crumble, you walked as I just stumble
We spoke only of things made in my head.
You never once controlled me, what all the others told me
But if I kept on going I'd be dead.
It's not just you that they blame
Now tell me where they keep the rain.
Silvia, right back where you came from,
You're a danger, heartbroken in number.
Silvia, no one's gonna tell you when enough's enough
Enough's always too tough.
See what I've done now, I don't understand
She says I'm screaming and I raise my hand.
But I never meant to, wasn't even there,
I never meant to, I would never dare.
Silvia, right back where you came from,
You're a danger, heartbroken in number.
Silvia, no one's gonna tell you when enough's enough
Enough's always too tough.
Silvia, right back where you came from,
You're a danger, heartbroken in number.
Silvia, no one's gonna tell you when enough's enough

And everything is going to the beat
And everything is going to the beat
And everything is going
And you said, it was like fire around the brim
Burning solid, burning thin the burning rim
Like stars burning holes right through the dark
Flicking fire like saltwater into my eyes
You were one inch from the edge of this bed
I dragged you back a sleepyhead, sleepyhead
They couldn't think of something to say the day you burst
With all their lions, with all their might and all their thirst
They crowd your bedroom like some thoughts wearing thin
Against the walls, against your rules, against your skin
My beard grew down to the floor and out through the doors

Since my heart is golden
I've got sense to hold in
Tempted just to make an ugly scene
No I'm not as proper
My money's in copper
Ripped down from the brownstones to the street
Listen, I'm your friend, don't quote me
But not a friend worth noting
Yes, please don't ever note me as your friend
Who says we have cold hearts?
Acting out our old parts
Dance before my favorite little scene, oh oh oh oh
I get carried away, carried away, from you
When I'm open and afraid
Cause I'm sorry, sorry 'bout that
Sorry 'bout things that I've said
Always let it get in my way
All your appeal, once again we'd feel
Higher education making sense
Justify your thesis, certain that you need this
Tell me what your point is in defense
Listen, I don't really know you
And I don't think I want to
But I think I can fake it if you can
Let's agree there's no need, no more talk of money
Let's just keep pretending to be friends, oh oh oh
I get carried away, carried away, from you
When I'm open and afraid
Cause I'm sorry, sorry 'bout that
Sorry 'bout things that I've said
Always let it get in my way[x2]
Wake up in the morning, wake up in the evening
Wake up when you want to
'Cause no one's really watching
Wish you had something to say about it
But we all have problems
We're all having problems
And we all got something to say
I get carried away, carried away, from you
When I'm open and afraid
'Cause I'm sorry, sorry 'bout that
Sorry 'bout things that I've said
