In your blue room sit with a candle lit
|
On a charcoal bed of dreams you carry on
|
Though the streets are hot you can still a lot
|
But you can walk out and forget there isn't time to take a loan
|
|
But you're now into something that you were immune to before
|
And there wasn't a sign you just fell into line at the door
|
And the question sands in the palms of hands
|
Of the wretches picking pieces of their minds up off the floor
|
|
On the mantel place there is still a trace
|
Of the plastic face you hung your moments on
|
And the sudden scare of a landing there on the sea
|
That you don't care to even see when you're alone
|
|
But the day is too short and you can't find support in the sun
|
You had thought you'd decide to just stick out the ride as it comes
|
But the emptiness of a thing that's less than what it was thought to be
|
Has left you wondering just how much more
|
