The sentences were traps |
|
The words were not attached |
|
Once you got to listening, |
|
The meaning would collapse. |
|
Things will change. |
|
I'll adapt. |
|
Knee swoll up by the side of the road. |
|
I wanna close my eyes, |
|
Gonna lie in a hole. |
|
Dying in the streets for performance art |
|
While all the foreigners and the tourists watch. |
|
Come on man you remember me. |
|
I had a hit song last century. |
|
I guess it wasn't really meant to be. |
|
Don't lecture me 'bout destiny. |
|
A Million little tiny shards |
|
Glow beneath the shining stars. |
|
They don't really know me, |
|
But they hold me in such high regard. |

|
Finish my drink and left the bar, |
|
Jumped the curb, wrecked the car. |
|
Oh my friend what a mess you are. |
|
Well I guess that goes in my repertoire. |
|
Come on, it's only been a year or so. |
|
Maybe it's more like years ago. |
|
I don't want to get all spiritual, |
|
But I do believe in miracles. |
|
A Million little tiny shards |
|
Glow beneath the shining stars. |
|
They don't really know me, |
|
But they hold me in such high regard. |
|
I feel no connection |
|
To your heroes and henchmen. |
|
All the things I'm sorry for, |
|
Fifty, sixty, probably more. |
|
A million little tiny shards |
|
Glow beneath the shining stars. |

|
Now I'll never ever leave on time. |
|
I'll be waiting out front by the neon sign. |
|
Come on baby, it'll be alright, |
|
Waiting out front by the neon sign. |
|
Nobody ever ever leaves on time, |
|
Waiting out front by the neon sign, |
|
Come on baby, it'll be alright, |
|
Waiting out front for the neon sign. |
|
Tell me where I know you from, |
|
Another little girl got old too young. |
|
Baby, where I know you from? |
|
You're just another little girl who got old too young. |
