Look at this, it's me, walking away.
|
Look at you drowning, on display.
|
Every time I've dropped by, I've tried to say
|
The water is rising.
|
You don't want to stay.
|
|
It's that sinking feeling. you know what it's bringing on.
|
You might as well say it,
|
I see it, I feel it.
|
This town is going wrong.
|
It's turning away.
|
|
You wanted me to be someone that I could never be
|
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
|
It's beautiful
|
I'd like for them to take me on ...
|
|
The track mall gang went off
|
On the Tennessee goth. a lunar moth,
|
You chrysalis and flail.
|
The water is rising. you try to rappel.
|
A rousing cheer for the boy in the well.
|
|
It's that sinking feeling. you know what it's bringing on.
|
You might as well say it,
|
I see it, I feel it.
|
This town is going wrong.
|
It's turning away.
|
|
You wanted me to be someone that I could never be
|
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
|
It's beautiful
|
I'd like for them to take me on ...
|
|
Here is where I look back.
|
Here is where you fell.
|
This is where I got up,
|
Shaking off my tail
|
This is where your rope trick
|
Started to look stale.
|
A greyhound pass for the boy in the well.
|
|
It's that sinking feeling
|
You know what it's bringing on
|
I might as well say it.
|
I see it, I feel it
|
This town is going wrong.
|
It's turning away.
|
|
You wanted me to be someone that I could never be
|
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
|
It's beautiful
|
I'd like for them to take me on
|
|
You wanted me to be something that I could never be
|
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
|
It's beautiful
|
I'd like for them to take me on
