It's been a while since I left you alone, I know... 'Cause I love you better and I'd fuck you better than him. A love so true (you know it's true) Because our love (this kind of love) it's hard to find (Wherever it takes you) (and I know) Cause I love you better and I fuck you better than him This kind of love so true Sometimes we're floating in the clouds and it feels like we can't come down Oh my... A minute late couldn't really matter A minute stray (can't go without her) shouldn't really matter Can't go without her... I love you better.

Apparently nothing exists here. You've got a mouth and eyes and some nerve but baby, you've got no ears. You've lost the touch of love, either that, or drowned it in your fears. Well don't worry at all about moving on, I won't keep you here. I think you finally hear And it's okay if I don't love you, I think you finally hear. Apparently nothing exists here, but I can't deny that there might be a little something that I feel. And I might take you down if at times you'd like to come around, but that most likely won't last very long, I'm leaving here. I think you finally hear And it's okay if I still love you, I think you finally hear.

I'm not asleep No, I'm not asleep, but you might have some trouble if you're trying to wake me. It's not okay, no like everyone always says. Sometimes I get to see the light but not lately I'm not asleep No, I'm not asleep but you might have some trouble if you're trying to wake me. I ain't giving up yet. No, I ain't your god damn puppet. Sometimes I find the will to forgive but not lately.

I'll be here on the wall. I look good in shadow. You won't see me at all because I just don't have it, no. I just don't get it, no I just don't have it I just don't, I just don't I just don't have it, no I look good in shadow. I'll be on the wall. No, you can't make me. Y'all just go ahead. I'll be fine right here... Because I look good in shadows and I just don't have it, I just don't I don't get it I don't have it Oh, but you people look so good out there dancing in the flashing lights They're flashing. Yeah, the lights are flashing, and It's so tempting now because the lights are flashing, and everyone looks kind of good in the flashing lights, ya know, even if they're not that good at dancing. But I still don't get it. I just don't have it, no. But why should that matter? Yeah, why should that matter? Oh, okay, maybe just one more shot, another shot and a beer, and I'll get out there. I'll give it a try I guess, have a good time, but I don't know, it's pretty hard to be sober though, unless you can really start to feel the beat and I don't know, that's kind of groovy. I could get down to that. Alright, you know... Maybe I don't really give a fuck. Maybe I can dance all night, and nobody even really looks at me anyway. And I can...and maybe I'm pretty good at dancing? I can dance, and I can get down, and maybe I'll move my feet and my hips and my shoulders. Oh fuck, but what do I do with my hands? I don't know what to do with my hands. I'll just leave them kinda stiff. Maybe my shoulders can stay kind of stiff, and my hands, they won't do much, but my feet are moving a lot. Yeah, I'll just keep moving my feet and my knees and my thighs and my hips. Oh yeah, it's all in the hips. That's what they say, it's all in the hips baby. Yeah, the hips baby. Aw man, I look so fucking good. I look so fucking good, come on baby. Yeah.

All the signs just illuminate the way to the rocks below. That's where we'll find entertainment. Entertain us. Pull us in, we're drifting in the darkening water. We're in your teenage hands; Hope you're taking this in I just wanna take my time, Just wanna do what's right. It's all in my head man, I'm losing my mind. Please, I'm sick of what I know, I'm sick of what I know. It's best that we not be seen. I don't know how to trust but I need you to love me. I need you to love me. All the signs just illuminate the way to the rocks below. That's where we'll find entertainment. Entertain us. Pull us in, we're drifting in the darkening water. We're in your teenage hands; Hope you're taking this in... I just wanna do things right if you could show me your light. Your loving arms would ease my worried mind. I just wanna sip your wine, just wanna take my time Loving you would ease my worried mind. I just need to see you again, I just need to see you again. I've long forgotten how to pretend; Let me find that place inside. Loving you would...my my All the signs just illuminate the way to the rocks below. That's where you'll find entertainment. Entertain us. Pull us in, we're drifting in the darkening water. We're in your teenage hands; Hope you're taking this in...

And all I need is blowing away with the breeze. I'm not a fan of asking, and I don't know how to repair. And all I knew has slowly come unglued. I'm not a man of conflict, don't wanna be a man of despair... (And for the longest of times, it's been on my mind for years, and in the heart of my fears. With the night and the hurt, I fear for the worst) (spoken, spoiled and...) I'm not a fan of asking. I'm not a fan of asking. I'm not a fan... Spoon me down the latest lie, so I know. Spoon me down the latest line, so I'm told Spoon me down the latest lies, so I know... I said I'm down... and stay down.

...and what drifted ashore came from the deepest water. Sands didn't shift. Your friends didn't bother, with the days getting hotter, longer... You caught the drift, and you mellowed out. Angels lay their heads on pillows made of clouds. The ocean sighed relief. You walked without a sound. Stop holding on. Start holding on. I wanted something, I wanted something. This place just brings me down, the sky is falling in...

All my love is suffering... Will you be there with me? Will you be there with me, my love? All this sadness and suffering... Will you call them out by name? See myself surrounded in chains. You're making me die with your long goodbyes. I'd be with you, no suffering. You're making me cry with your long goodbyes. I'd be with you, I'd be with you until no end. All my love is suffering... Will you be there with me? Will you be there with me, my love? All this sadness and suffering... Will you call them out by name? See myself surround in shame. You're making me lie with your long goodbyes. I'd be with you, no suffering. You're making me die with your long goodbyes. I'd be with you, I'd be with you until no end...
