| [00:00.00] |
She's never alone, |
| [00:02.74] |
because she's scared of what she might say to herself |
| [00:07.71] |
Always drinking in the backroom of the bar |
| [00:11.85] |
where everyone turns in |
| [00:16.99] |
A half-hearted grin |
| [00:19.58] |
She won't be afraid |
| [00:22.10] |
as long as that prescription keeps going through |
| [00:26.90] |
And all the happy pills make her look like cardboard cut out of someone, |
| [00:36.26] |
I use to learn from |
| [00:38.80] |
But on the phone, she's telling everyone, |
| [00:43.58] |
that there was a blue sky, she left behind |
| [00:48.49] |
And there's a place that no one knows about, |
| [00:53.14] |
Away from integrity |
| [00:55.52] |
she writes a book in her head that nobody will read |
| [01:00.19] |
|
| [01:07.29] |
Whatever you say, |
| [01:10.03] |
please don't talk about the time when she was young |
| [01:14.65] |
Apparently that was a different person and |
| [01:18.89] |
so long ago it's strange to me, |
| [01:23.92] |
there's no history |
| [01:26.49] |
But there's a past |
| [01:28.76] |
and she's telling everyone |
| [01:31.09] |
It must be a garden, |
| [01:33.46] |
that wouldn't grow |
| [01:35.91] |
With roots of shame, |
| [01:38.10] |
too sensitive to blame |
| [01:40.57] |
to herself as we watch he drown, |
| [01:42.91] |
I can't save the queen without a kingdom or a crown |
| [01:47.23] |
|
| [02:07.46] |
Somewhere in this lonely game of sympathy |
| [02:11.25] |
there is a selfish dream |
| [02:13.61] |
That makes me sick |
| [02:16.93] |
Standing on the high wire while you're on the ground |
| [02:20.81] |
To you what is dangerous is safe and sound... |
| [02:27.81] |
You let me down |
| [02:30.61] |
|
| [02:48.79] |
