Old man, you were young then
|
Had so much love that
|
You traded for gradient things
|
So I walked up to your red door
|
And I could not see a reflection of me
|
So I laid down on your front lawn
|
And let the grass grow up around me
|
And wait...
|
|
'Cause you've got me on my knees
|
And right about now I'm begging you please
|
I know you won't 'cause you've got needs
|
And everything stops when everyone wants, we all need things
|
So please...
|
|
Red light, you say you want life
|
But you stop right before the good part
|
And the green light, yeah that's my left eye
|
It gets so cold, I have to close them both
|
And wait...
|
|
'Cause you've got me on my knees
|
And right about now I'm begging you please
|
I know you won't 'cause you've got needs
|
And everything stops when everyone wants, we all need things
|
And right about now I'm on my knees
|
|
The world we know,
|
It's the world we lost.
|
|
I said I've got the lines if you'd like to hear it
|
I can't decide if you'd like to be there, too
|
