down to the earth i fell with dripping wings heavy things won't fly and the sky might catch on fire and burn the axis of the world that's why i prefer a sunless sky to the glittering and stinging in my eyes i feel so light this is all i want to feel tonight i feel so light tonight and the rest of my life gleaming in the dark sea i'm as light as air floating there breathlessly when the dream dissolves i open up my eyes i realize that everything is shoreless sea a weightlessness is passing over me everything is waves and stars the universe is resting in my armsBack to the top of the page.
the pinch one inch half a head and half dead no pain no gain there's a million voices in my brain it's like a game of hide and seek and i play every day i close my eyes and i count to ten one two three and everybody runs away i'm in a bad way it's such a bad way can't you give a damn on a better day i can't come out to play when i'm in such a bad bad way purple leather makes it better a purple coat or a purple sweater clothes make the girl i know but i can't get dressed when i'm this low i'm like a self made hand grenade but i can't pull the pin i set the bait and sit back and wait then i try to see if i can reel you in little peach little blue a little water and i'm as good as new i want to swallow all of you but i'm biting more than i can chewBack to the top of the page.
they walk the horses home at night right by my window they pull their carriages along busy city streets it's from another time it's like a lullaby but i don't think that i can sleep tonight so i count the streetlights i count the stars i make a wish and wonder where you are i wonder if i'll live long enough to feel again help me 'cause i'm falling out of grace i hang my head and hide my face i don't know what it is i just feel out of place like horses in the city i played the game i dropped the ball i lost another friend i gained a future but i can't see where the future ends i'd write a letter or write a song but once again my voice just comes out wrong i wonder if i'll live long enough to sing again but they don't seem frightened as the cars go speeding by so why am i so terrified to close my eyes tonight i'm just afraid there's no time no time this time they walk the horses home at night right by my window they pull their carriages along busy city streets i wonder if they'll live to run without the reins againBack to the top of the page.

and it feels like a movie 'cause i've done something heavy now i'm all alone and you know i like it well i wish i was older i could hold my liquor then i 'd blow your cover instead of my own 'cause there's nothing i can do to prove that i still love you and i think i hear my friends through the walls i'm gonna fade to black i think i'm gonna fade to black i swear to god i'd take it back but it's just no use what's done is done i can't blame anyone but me everybody's out there without me they're not even talking about me flying out of the city and they don't even miss me four days in the haze of the biggest mistake i've ever made and now i've got to get out of this place 'cause everybody knows even the ones who don'tBack to the top of the page.
number one camera so here i go i know this feeling awfully well i could build a camera custom made to tape record the smell of the perfume that we used to share until you spilled it on the floor what more could anybody ask for i remember you in polaroid the glitter and the glue and all that noise i should probably sort of miss you but i see you all the time in polaroid up up and away in my beautiful cliché i have wasted too much precious time pretending i'm o.k. i better get out of the kitchen next time when i can not stand the heat my feet were colder than the hebrides we were bored there was nothing else to do playing records and posing in the nude it was dirty mind so it was cool and i always thought i'd know you everybody knew the score they knew they could not trust us but i could peel you like a pear and god would call it justice i guess there's nothing left to do but live with just the memory of you i do in sixties pink and light blueBack to the top of the page.
and this is the way it's going to be i gave him away and now i'm free but he was the life i meant to lead there's nothing left of me but this is my melody and why must the night crawl by like this and why do we dwell on what we'll miss i've got to be careful what i wish my happiness was his but this is my goodbye kiss he got me down and now i'm only singing for my health got me down and now i can't get up myself got me down turn around and tell me when it's over and it's time for me to get up off the ground and there's really nothing left to say but this couldn't wait another day 'cause something confusing but o.k. has got me in its sway and this is my getaway and though i try to hear you now i think we've built a wall of sound between us and though you know i love you still i think we've both just lost the willBack to the top of the page.
from the moment i arrived until the day that i died i was selfish and slow too slow to ride by your side i was so afraid that i began to fade now another bright has turned to gray and someone else's light will take my place and though i'm getting used to the aftertaste you know i miss your eyes i miss your face and when the sun went dead and the moon was up ahead i finally figured out what i should have said to you then and no one is to blame but we'll never be the same there's no use in trying i can't be what i wasBack to the top of the page.
i hate your way i don't care what you say i hate your way i don't care and i 'm only half there so i don't care they can cut me down 'til i'm the talk of the town i'm a fool for you had to sell my soul but you were so rock and roll i'm a fool for you i hate your way a little more every day i hate your way a little more and i could leave but what for a little more and it's wicked to be so stupid man it's stupid to be so dumb i'm getting crooked i can feel it i can feel it in my bonesBack to the top of the page.
Why does the sun go on shining Why does the sea rush to shore Don't they know it's the end of the world 'Cause you don't love me any more Why do the birds go on singing Why do the stars glow above Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when I lost your love I wake up in the morning and I wonder Why everything's the same as it was I can't understand, no, I can't understand How life goes on the way it does Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said goodbye Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said goodbyeBack to the top of the page.
