and, you know, she never had much of a chance
born into a family built like an avalanche

i lower my eyes
wishing i could cry more
and care less,
yes it's true,
i was trying to love someone again
__________________________________
if i had my way i'd stay here
and watch your hair grow for a while
it makes me smile just to dream of it
how have you been?
__________________________________
everyone has a skeleton
and a closet to keep it in
and you're mine
every song has a you
a you that the singer sings to
and you're it this time
baby, you're it this time
___________________________________
are you weary as water
in a faucet left dripping
with an incessant sadness
like a sad record skipping
and an ugly and ornery
and shadowy dread
lurking like a troll under the bridge
between your heart and your head
___________________________________
tell you one thing
i'm gonna make noise when i go down
for ten square blocks
they're gonna know i died
all the goddesses will come up
to the ripped screen door
and say,
what do you want, dear?
and i'll say,
i want inside

his bored eyes were obscene
on his denim thighs a magazine
i wish he'd never come here with me
in fact i wish he'd never come near me
i wish his shoulder
wasn't touching mine
i am growing older
waiting in this line
but some of life's best lessons
are learned at the worst times

No one's picking up the phone.
Guess it's clear he's gone.
And this little masochist
is lifting up her dress.
Guess I thought I could never feel
The things I feel
______________________________________
you said we were the real thing
so I show you some more and I learn
what black magic can do
__________________________________
and then
when it all seemed to clear
just then
you go and disappear

You told me last night.
You were a sun now with your own
devoted satellite.
Happy for you
and I am sure that I hate you�.

I walked into your dream
And now I've forgotten how to dream my own dream
You are the clever one aren't you?
___________________________________
If you need me, me and neil'll be hangin' out with the dream king
__________________________________
and I think I could leave your
world if she was the better girl So
when we died I tried to bribe the
undertaker
____________________________________
If you want me to
Boy I could lie to you
you don't need one of these to let me inside of you
and is it true that devils end up like you
do something safe for the picture frame
__________________________________
And in the mist there she rides
And castles are burning in my heart
And as I twist I hold tight
And I ride to work every morning wondering why
"Sit in the chair and be good now"
and become all that they told you
