|
There were dreams on a full moon night |
|
Big black hole in the middle of the light |
|
Painless times yeah we were feeling alright |
|
We were breaking down the walls |
|
Dirty little basements and electric guitars |
|
Sound of the river and the pines and the stars |
|
Drank a little to much yeah we took it too far |
|
Well most of us survived |
|
So much coming out and nothing going in |
|
With your skirt above your knee and your murderous grin |
|
Awe tell that your not real |
|
You were standing there so literal and free |
|
Writing pretty poems and ruining me |
|
Took a little time but baby now I see |
|
That the end is always near |
|
I was sleeping on a couch with a shivering dog |
|
Practicing my speeches and studying the law |
|
Nothing in the cover but a hammer and a saw |
|
And some nails to drive it home |
|
So much coming out there's nothing going in |
|
I could write it down but that would be a sin |
|
And you know how I feel about sin |
|
Charlie's on stage and roof may collapse |
|
No one seems to worry about the light in the gap |
|
All the walls painted yellow and papered with maps |
|
A reminder its time to move on |
|
Pretty little city built on a hillside |
|
Music in the bars and fire in the sky |
|
We went to the beach and it was covered in ice |
|
And I used to call it home |
|
So much coming out there's nothing going in |
|
I know that you feel like you're never gonna win |
|
Awe but the world wont forgive a winner |
