OK, so listen: I like my life a lot.
|
It's a shame that these sharks got my leg and won't stop.
|
They won't stop, they won't stop, they won't stop -
|
They're on top.
|
Keep them from biting and make sure my bedroom door's still locked.
|
Oh, look at the clock.
|
You should practice these things by yourself.
|
I know these words really hurt but they help.
|
And I'm doing the best that I can
|
To make a spell in this sand;
|
To be with my family and friends;
|
We're too many means without ends.
|
I thought you died in that car?
|
I swore I saw your broken arms,
|
But now that you're here there's no harm.
|
Got a magicians touch, and his charm.
|
There are so many words in this song
|
That let me know that I'm wrong.
|
You never really were gone;
|
My writing changes those thoughts.
|
Do you understand what I mean?
|
It was only writing for me,
|
But my ink spills you on the page -
|
Through this change, I've been saved.
|
Holy water just wont do it;
|
It's much too easy to see right through it.
|
It takes some time and some discipline
|
In our respective fields of medicine.
|
Lalalalalalalala...
|
I walked into a Laundromat and lit up a cigarette.
|
A woman said, "Extinguish that. You can't smoke in here."
|
But I can, and I am,
|
And I'm so separated from my own awkward body.
|
I'm stretching out to clear a pool of water.
|
An open invitation - to us from the oceans.
|
Alchemy is fun.
|
You see you don't need to change things;
|
Things change themselves:
|
From metal to gold, from raindrops to snow.
|
It just so happens the snow will change us all.
|
Ironic how these bones can't handle the fall.
|
Nostalgia dies every time we lie about some details we hide -
|
Cause the truth truly hurts sometimes.
|
So don't you cry.
|
Don't keep me up all night.
|
Don't say that you're all right when the truth is you're not all right.
|
Don't you understand that alchemy is not about the life we lead?
|
It's all about the change to things.
|
It's getting harder every day -
|
Hard for me to breath:
|
It's hard enough to breathe.
|
I want to change things.
