[00:03.22] | I was up to my neck in apologies |
[00:08.09] | For the war they had waged over me |
[00:12.89] | Two ill-tempered ideas |
[00:15.48] | Tearing down the house |
[00:17.79] | Guess I’ve been loaning it out |
[00:20.29] | To the wrong crowd |
[00:23.26] | So there’s another heart |
[00:25.51] | That plays the part of mine |
[00:28.08] | Forgetting all the lines |
[00:30.34] | But it beats right |
[00:33.17] | And I’m off to the side |
[00:35.54] | Or somewhere in the seats |
[00:37.81] | Just trying to keep the peace |
[00:39.78] | Did we forget the cost |
[00:42.25] | (Something got me to give you up) |
[00:44.87] | Of living good and lost? |
[00:47.14] | (Someone told me there’s no “enough”) |
[00:49.86] | Our loyalties divided |
[00:52.07] | (Somehow took it to mean the worst) |
[00:55.05] | And cast across |
[00:56.97] | (If there’s a reason just make sure that you get there first) |
[01:11.90] | I was down with the strays seeking charity |
[01:16.86] | Wondering if I could seem deserving |
[01:22.30] | Couldn’t see what became of the family crest |
[01:26.55] | A realization my pride couldn’t digest |
[01:32.02] | But if there’s another key |
[01:34.67] | That gets you through the door |
[01:36.82] | You won’t know what it was for |
[01:39.17] | ‘Till it’s too late |
[01:41.73] | ‘Cause I’m diving through the trash |
[01:44.10] | And there’s nothing but belief |
[01:46.56] | All rotten in the heat |
[01:48.65] | Did we forget the cost |
[01:51.09] | (Something got me to give you up) |
[01:53.75] | Of living good and lost? |
[01:56.03] | (Someone told me there’s no “enough”) |
[01:58.53] | Our loyalties divided |
[02:01.01] | (Somehow took it to mean the worst) |
[02:03.97] | And cast across |
[02:06.15] | (If there’s a reason just make sure that you get there first) |
[02:10.43] | But did you get there first |
[02:11.75] | (Something got me to give you up) |
[02:13.54] | Or did the vessels burst? |
[02:15.73] | (Someone told me there’s no “enough”) |
[02:18.31] | Did we offend the water |
[02:20.71] | (Somehow took it to mean the worst) |
[02:23.57] | And die of thirst? |
[02:25.66] | (If there’s a reason just make sure that you get there first) |
[02:41.00] | I couldn’t get it past you |
[02:45.78] | The pain that had gotten used to me |
[02:50.33] | While you planted salt like seeds |
[02:53.96] | In my every open wound |
[03:00.38] | The tireless glare of the brake lights |
[03:05.27] | The collars that hugged us too tight |
[03:10.22] | The crack of my caustic voice |
[03:13.74] | Made a mockery of me |
[03:16.18] | A travesty of what i tried to be |
[03:21.70] | Did we forget the cost |
[03:26.65] | Of living good and lost? |
[03:31.51] | Our loyalties divided |
[03:37.06] | And cast across |
[03:41.40] | But did you get there first |
[03:43.90] | (Something got me to give you up) |
[03:46.29] | Or did the vessels burst? |
[03:48.81] | (Someone told me there’s no “enough”) |
[03:51.41] | Did we offend the water |
[03:53.71] | (Somehow took it to mean the worst) |
[03:56.77] | And die of thirst? |
[03:58.60] | (If there’s a reason just make sure that you get there first) |
[04:14.58] | My head is going south |
[04:17.05] | Just trying to hammer out |
[04:19.49] | A less complicated route |
[04:21.94] | To the wrong place |
[04:24.35] | And I couldn’t bear the cross |
[04:26.75] | So I’m holding it aloft |
[04:29.20] | Just auctioning it off. |
