but the way you taught me to just let it all go by. and so we've learned to be as faithless
stand behind bulletproof glass
exchanging our affections through a drawer. and it was always horribly convenient
and happening too fast. you should count your change before you're even out the door. yes
you should but please. return
return to the person that you were. and i will do the same
cause it is too hard to belong to someone who is gone. my compass spins. the wilderness remains. once too often
i have retreated
into the depths of my despair. i built a barricade to block you on the road. but standing there with all of my possessions
piled higher than a house
i felt closer to you than you ever would have known. so let these tiny acts of charity
become common ground of which to build
a monument to commemorate our time. and though
you say
you've found another
who will surely speed you on your way
don't let the forest grow over that path you came there by. but you will
so. so hurry up and run to the one that you love. and blind him with your kindness. and he'll make war
old war
on who you were before. and he'll claim all that has spoiled in your heart. well
now
i tell myself i've mended
under these patches of blue sky. there are still a few holes that let in a little rain. and so it is crying on my shingles. my floorboards moan under my feet. the refrigerator is whining
so i've got reason to complain. but i am not gonna bless you with such compliments
some degrading psalm of praise
like the kind that converted you to me so long ago. because the truth is that gossip's
as good as gospel in this town. you can save face but you won't ever save your soul. and that's a fact. so hurry up and run to the one that you love. and tie him up in you likeness
and he'll become
become the prisoner i was. and know all that has spoiled in your heart. and know all that has spoiled in your heart. so hurry up and run to the one that you love. and blind him with your kindness. and he'll make war
old war
on who you were before. and he'll claim all that has spoiled in your heart. yeah
he'll claim all that has spoiled in your heart. (so hurry up and run to the one that you love. and blind him with your kindness. and he'll make war
