On nights like tonight, when no one's around
|
I put on the record, the record I found
|
When I was a kid and the world was a town
|
And Heartbreaker weren't nothing painful
|
|
Carry me Mother Mary I'm faithless
|
Like Sister Theresa, canonized, faceless
|
The press release leaves the plagiarist nameless
|
And all is forgiven
|
|
On nights like tonight, when no one's around
|
I sit in the dark on my hands on the ground
|
And I smile like the devil smiles, unseen but proud
|
Truth be told I don't know
|
|
Who's at the helm
|
Just sit tight
|
And I'll make my way to you
|
And I'll make my way to you
|
|
If I'm not on time
|
Remember that I tried
|
|
Carry me Mother Mary I'm faithless
|
Like needles in haystacks that we just replace
|
It's all the same monster that nobody faces
|
Where all is forgiven
|
|
On nights like tonight, when no one's around
|
I turn off the lights and I float off the ground
|
And I smile like I used to when you were around
|
But truth be told I don't know
|
|
Who's at the helm
|
Just sit tight
|
I'll make my way to you
|
I'll find a way to get to you
|
|
I don't know who's at the helm
|
Just sit tight
|
And I'll find a way to get to you
|
