FIRE DOOR
i opened the fire door
to four lips
none of which were mine kissing
tightened my belt around my hips
where your hands were missing
and stepped out into the cold
collar high
under the slate grey sky
and the air was smoking and the streets were dry
and i wasn't joking when i said
goodbye
there were magazine quality men talking on the corner
french, no less
much less of them than us
so why do i feel like something's been rearranged?
you know
taken out of context i must seem so strange

killed a cockroach so big
it left a puddle of puss on my wall
when you and i are lying in bed
you don't seem so tall
i'm singing now because
my tear ducts are too tired
and my mind is disconnected
but my heart is wired

i make such a good statisic
someone should study me now
somebody's got to be intersted in whole i feel
just cuz i'm here
and i'm real

oh how i miss
sustituting the conclusion to confrontation with a kiss
and oh, how i miss
walking up to the edge and jumping in
like i could feel the future on your skin

i opened the fire door to four lips
none of which were mine kissing

i opened the fire door....
