Breathe, breathe in the air.
Don't be afraid to care.
Leave but don't leave me.
Look around and choose your own ground.
(stay strong for little FLea.)
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.
(what is it?)
"And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I
don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime."
(Because i have lost all but my soul and two hands,
my eyes and my mind and my tungue to speak with,
But so little only makes the best bird make lands,
But for me this time was few to many, the fifth,)
"If you can hear this whispering you are dying."
(really...cuz...)
"I never said I was frightened of dying."
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise.
Day after day, love turns grey
Like the skin of a dying man.
Night after night, we pretend its all right
But I have grown older and
You have grown colder and
Nothing is very much fun any more.
And I can feel one of my turns coming on.
I feel cold as a razor blade,
Tight as a tourniquet,
Dry as a funeral drum.
(but what...)
What has become of you?
Does anybody else here
Feel the way I do?
(probably not..well)
Ooooh, you cannot reach me now
Ooooh, no matter how you try
Goodbye, cruel world, it's over
Walk on by.
(even still, i have a wish....and)
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
(but to cover these feelings of hope,
i have an anger for how i feel,)
One of these days, I'm going to cut you into little pieces
(then i just wonder)
Could anybody love him
Or is it just a crazy dream?
(its probably just a crazy dream,
nobody will love me it will seem,
You and me was maybe a part of your little scheem,
who knows ill you choose and deem.)
And if I show you my dark side
Will you still hold me tonight?
(No, youd just confide.)
And if I open my heart to you
And show you my weak side
What would you do?
(Not what i would hope)
Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings,
Thought I oughta tear the curtain down.
I held the blade in trembling hands
Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang
I never had the nerve to make the final cut.
(too bad i stopped those many months ago,
it woulda made it all so much easier,
it woulda gone with the flo)
