I see you laughing up at me, and I can't hide What it is that you can see I guess that's why I'm holding out my love for you And when you turn it around In different ways The answers turn around and fly away I see you laughing up at me And I can't hide What it is that you can see I guess that's why I'm holding out my love for you A lifelong history Of trust in vain I lead the fools' parade Out in the rain I see you laughing up at me 'Cos you don't seem to care But oh how happy I can be When you are there That's why I'm holding out My love for you

What did you plan? What did you anticipate? All you demand to find Spiraling down, falling behind No tomorrow When you're ahead of your time What did you want to know? How does it end? How does it go? From the bottom I fled But the stars overhead Let me wake from the ruin I must say that I was a wreck Hit the bottom I guess But the words you once said Let me wake from the ruin Second sight up ahead I couldn't withstand I couldn't anticipate How low I would go What did I miss? I didn't know, I didn't know Now what do you anticipate? Another catastrophe Coming around, following me From the bottom I fled But the stars overhead Let me wake from the ruin I must say that I was a wreck Hit the bottom I guess But the words you once said Let me wake from the ruin Second sight up ahead

Flooding the room two by two From the womb to the holiday There is no holiday First, double-cross her heart He wants to start a family Needing something to go on If she weren't writing in blood She'd bring him her jokes, a new liver And a shovel for the mud If he were not knee-deep in mud He'd bring her his drugs He'd get her a typewriter If this is the life Why does it feel so good to die today? Blue to grey, grow up and blow away If this is the life Why does it feel so good to die today? Blue to grey, grow up and blow away Nobody knows which street to take He took the easy way, What was the easy way? First, double-cross her heart He wants to start a family She always thought she would not If she weren't writing in blood She'd bring him her jokes, A new liver and a shovel for the mud If he were not knee-deep in mud He'd bring her his jokes He'd get her a typewriter If this is the life Why does it feel so good to die today? Blue to grey, grow up and blow away If this is the life Why does it feel so good to die today? Blue to grey, grow up and blow away First, double-cross her heart He wants to start a family Her body is the baby If this is the life Why does it feel so good to die today? Blue to grey, grow up and blow away If this is the life Why does it feel so good to die today? Blue to grey, grow up and blow away Blue to grey, grow up and blow away Blue to grey, grow up and blow away Blue to grey, grow up and blow away Blue to grey, grow up and blow away

Piss-poor, ride in her sun bathing fireside We're here for the porn and the sirloin Get your T-bone Let your backbone slide Tunnel and sky collide Lose friends to the air waves and the airlines I wanna make it right Some future in my eyes, bright Hush don't explain When you water down my name I'll be up too late Call me when you get Better at your game You haven't beat me yet The waitress The actress Got the skin and the bones With a hairbrush and an air brush She'd be white gold She asked the piss-poor "Why you lookin' for that Party in the sky It's just a movie bout a movie to old to die" But I'm gonna make it right Future in my eyes, bright Hush, don't explain When you water down my name I'll be up too late Call me when you get Better at your game You haven't beat me yet Though my vision is strainin' I'm gonna make it right Some future in my eyes, bright Hush, don't explain When you water down my name I'll be up too late Call me when you get Better at your game You haven't beat me yet
