I was on my way to the center of the sun when i lost my wings and i fell into the crowd and they carried me to a hole in the ground and they burried
My city sleeps by the side of a freeway, the city scraps And winter time she wore a yellow coat Now there's nothin' on her back If a building falls you
Well I been watchin' while you been coughin i've been drinking life while you been nausous and so i drink to health while you kill yourself and
Someone falls to pieces Sleepin all alone Someone kills the pain Spinning in the silence To finally drift away Someone gets excited In a chapel yard
Settle down now and sit with me Let me tell you how this all came to be A yellow flower with your pedals to the air And flying on paper wings that brought
Listen now, let me speak I will be the dog at your feet And come along when you call Be the little bird in your straw and sing you a song I'll be there
