Lyrics

I heard you're suffering, come be a wild thing
Come run with Jackie, me, and this lady
The stupid house you made fell away like paper lace
Come run with Jackie, me, and this lady
And when you're done crying to everyone you can go back to your good home
She will be tired, but she'll be glad, when you go back to your good home
Paper burns and paper fades, paper crumples into ugly shapes
Come run with Jackie, me, and this lady
And when you're done crying to everyone you will go back to your good home
She will be tired, but she'll be glad, when you go back to your good home
And when she's done dancing with everyone she will go back to your good home
She will be tired from loving everyone, but she'll be glad that you're back home
But for now, until you're home, you ride with us
There was no way you could have known about the things she didn't know she couldn't trust
Oh, sanctuary oh, sanctuary, oh for now, until you're home, you ride with us (Sanctuary, oh sanctuary, oh sanctuary)
There was no way you could have known about the things she didn't know she couldn't trust (Oh, sanctuary, oh sanctuary, oh sanctuary)
Oh, sanctuary oh, sanctuary oh what's in the world, what's in the world, what's in the hearts of pretty girls?
There's nothing left inside the room you filled with lion skins and laurels
Those were good ideas, but they weren't diamonds and pearls
The stupid house you made fell away like paper lace
