Lost
She's a summer storm, and I'm a hurricane
One just blows through town, one blows the town away
And I'm wilder than her.
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
lost, aren't we all?
that was the kind of tree it was, it liked poor people
beautifullly ugly as only little girls could be
it was like giving a gift that was meager, was all you had, and then finding that, in the giving, it had turned to gold
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
They're all sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinking alone
it's like all your life there's a box inside you marked love, and when you finally go to open it, you find there's no box, only love
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
they tell you pretty lies little girl
they tell you I am wicked and you believe them
Please tell me you're just feeling tired
If it's more that I feel that I might break
Please send me anything but signals that are mixed
Are we out of touch, are we out of time?
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
Heaven bent to take my hand, and lead me through the fire
To be a long awaited ending, to a long and painful fight
Truth be told, I tried my best
But somewhere along the way, i got caught up in all life had to offer
And the truth was so much more than I could bear
love, and other intangibles
life is tragic, and therefore, unutterably beautiful
this is how the old world fades away
texas, with all is contradictions
bright eyes and pretty lies
This is how the world ends, not with a bang, but a whimper.
