In your message you said
you were goin' to bed but I'm not done with the night So I stayed up and read but your words in my head got me mixed up so I turned out the light And I don't know how to slow it down My mind's racing from chasing pirates Well the man in there swings while the silliest things floppin around in my brain And I try not to dream but them possible schemes swim around wanna drown me in synch And I don't know how to slow it down Oh my mind's racing from chasing pirates And I don't know how to slow it down Oh My mind's racing from chasing pirates My mind's racin' from chasing pirates My mind's racing from chasing pirates |

While love seasons will undo your soul
Time forgives us and it takes control We separate our things to put us back together We're light as a feather Heavy as the weather If it was rainstorms Put our hands together to plough obey It's like a show was over But we're too scared to walk away All for the better Worst for the way We're light as a feather Got you and I together Meanwhile inside of me it was rainin' storms, hm, You didn't know, hm God bless your soul We're light as a feather Heavy as the weather We're light as a feather Got you and I together |

I'll pretend my heart's not on fire
If you steal my true love's name Broke down subway in this city of spires Tape your picture over his in the frame We'll imagine we're sleeping revolvers Shotgun wedding in a strange SoHo Our chambers hold silvery collars Gun down werewolves wherever we go We gun down werewolves wherever we go Midnight phone calls in the back of a Mustang Creased white pages torn right from the spine Kissed my neck with a crooked, cracked fang You always hoped one day you'd be mine Threw our fathers on funeral pyres I'm not sure that we were playing a game Busted gasket in a field full of liars No one noticed we set five boroughs aflame No one noticed we set five boroughs aflame Young blood Young bone Old ghosts Go home Band of gold with a diamond implied You wrote letters that you never sent I made promises I'll always deny Now we'll never know what the other meant Watch is ticking like a heartbeat gone berserk Lost the chance to wind the key Roosters are nothing but clucking clockwork Our fears are only what we tell them to be Our fears are only what we tell them to be Drown the last of our matches Burn the rest of each other You were strongest when I ached for breath Through the thick of smoke we'll finally smother Young blood Young bone Old ghosts Go home |

If I touched myself
the way you touched me If I could hold myself the way you held me Then I wouldn't need you I wouldn't need you No I wouldn't need you to love me If I could replace the things you gave me If I could see my face without the tragedy Then I wouldn't need you I wouldn't need you No I wouldn't need you to love me But I do So come back Come back If you could see the way I act When I'm alone If you could hear my voice crack over the phone Then you'd know I need you oh you'd I need you Oh you'd know I need you to love me |

Hush now watch the stars fall
into a fire wall I am waiting here waiting for you to come home Sinking embers glow Melting icy snow I am waiting here waiting for you to come home And I watch them burn when will I ever learn If I wait it doesn't mean you will return And I watch them burn when will I ever learn If I wait it doesn't mean you will return Now all the stars have gone faded into cracks of dawn and I'm still waiting here waiting for you to come home I'm waiting here Waiting for you to come home |

If all we talk about is money
Nothng will be funny, honey And now that everyone's a critic It's makin' my mascara runny If we only talk about the 'Heathers' Making it together is crazy If we don't get a new situation For our busted nation, we're lazy But it's gonna be, it's gonna be Please make it be, it's gonna be Now if a princess becomes human Don't stone her on a talk show, you'll ruin 'Cause there's a fine line between a skewer And a decent sense of humor Aim at the ones who've really hurt us They should be arrseted for murders But then all the cameras were turned on Some skinny naked blond eating burgers But it's gonna be, it's gonna be It's gonna be, it's gonna be It's gonna be, it's gonna be Please make it be, let's make it be It's gonna be, it's gonna be It's gonna be |

You've ruined me now but I liked it
But I'm ruined, do you have a plan Cuz I'm in your hands You ruined me now, Though I liked it Now I'm ruined, I had no choice when I heard your voice I know you said can't be mislead Now I'm the one who's face is red. You ruined me now, though I liked it Now I'm ruined, Your chocolate eyes like buttons in piles. You ruined me now, though I liked it Now I'm ruined, I'm trying to part with what's in my heart. You ruined me and how I thought I liked it But I'm ruined my whole world is left turned upside down. I heard me say I'm going away, But now I write you everyday. You head me say I'm going away, But I'm on the floor outside your door You ruined me now You ruined me now You ruined me now You ruined me now, but I liked it But I'm ruined, do you have a plan cuz I'm in your hands. |

I'll go back to Manhattan
As if nothing ever happened When I cross that bridge It'll be as if this don't exist Have a prince who is waiting And a kingdom downtown I'll go back to Manhattan As if nothing ever happened Don't have to speak at all One look in your eyes And I won't have to fall Don't have to speak at all Brooklyn holds you And holds my heart too What a fool I was to think I could live in both worlds Don't have to speak at all One look in your eyes And I won't have to fall Don't have to speak at all I should go back to Manhattan It's just a train ride away I know nothing about leaving But I know I should do it today |

Hey shall we wade through the room for the street
And finally to me He asked me what I'm drinking My friend johnny tugging on my sleeve Asked if I wanna leave And what I'm really thinking is Why can't it be easy, easy Why don't you leave me, leave me, leave me be I can't see us swaying I can't hear what you're saying I'm sitting here stuck And plastered to my seat I think of a reason to leave When you finally start speaking I'll take a a long stroll Walked down washington street Half asleep on my feet Half aware if I'm dreaming I'll go home alone A sinking stone A switched-off telephone I'll go on briefly A frozen breeze A fallen down factory I still see us swaying But I can't hear what you're saying I just lost the plot Got a little copped Been a little knocked I just hit a wall Had a little fall I felt a swinging wrecking ball And why should that be Why don't you tell me Why don't you tell me I'm sure you'll tell me Why don't you tell me I guess you'd tell me Tell me |

It's him or me
That's what he said But I can't choose between a vegan and a pot head So I chose you Because you're sweet And you give me lots of loving and you eat meat And that's how you became my only man of the hour You never lie and you don't cheat And you don't have any baggage tied to your forefeet Do I deserve To be the one Who will feed you breakfast, lunch and dinner and take you to the park at dawn Will you really be My only man of the hour I know you'll never bring me flowers Flowers, they will only die And though you'll never take a shower together I know you'll never make me cry You'll never argue, you don't even talk And I like the way you let me lead you when we go outside and walk Will you really be My only man of the hour My only man of the hour My only man of the hour |
