ve turned my heart jet black. Reopen the wounds and let them drain. Swing the sledge to the mainframe. And to the one that stopped my heart. I must return the crush
Shatter the mirror on the wall and turn me into beautiful broken pieces. I am a slave to my own reflection. Hollywood in a soft syringe push it in and
Spike the I.V. with kerosene as insects halo an open wound. They flutter death threats in morse code and old habits are exposed. Secret handshake decapitation
I'll stand knee deep in your ridicule. Your tongue flickers as threats are made. I've saved you a seat in hell. Lets begin. You can shove glass down
Someone go for help, she's not getting up. The cardboard spine has buckled under the extension of her wings. It took my breath away. She fell for years

I had a bad day today, I couldn't even park my car. And I walk to 67th by myself And never seem to get to talk to anybody I want to drink this way,
Dressed up for a big date Like Halloween day but it was Fourth of July now A car crash with a suitcase and a painted face She was one of a kind She wears

Hey, man, it's been a while Do you remember me? When I hit the streets I was 17 A little wild, a little green I've been up and down and in between
There are days when she's a whisper Nights when she's a scream A reason to wake up in the morning To close your eyes and dream She'll curse you like
The Time ain't nothing but time It's a verse with no rhyme Man, it all comes down to you Change ain't nothing but change Just the faces and the names
It's a hot night, the natives are restless We're sweating by the light of the moon There's a voodoo mojo brewing at the go-go That could knock a witch
I never went to college I don't have a degree Let's say I went to night school I learned all I know on the streets I wasn't born a rich man I ain't got
I just can't Believe It was all a lie No man in the moon Just a big light in the sky I hear Disneyland Might lose Mickey Mouse In some giant hostile
She won't let me buy her jewelry She don't want things that she can keep She wears wildflowers in her hair Then throws them in the sea She's the beginning
