I was alone and frightened. Until you came along. I was afraid of everyone. You showed me I was wrong. You came into my life. And helped me take a stand.
Waking up on the ceiling. Got an uptight downbeat feeling. It's a long way from okay today. . Is this a trick, maybe voodoo. I don't stick to the ground like you do.
Stitched up like a wounded soldier. Rain falls on my parade. Any time I get the nerve to ask her. It's two heartbeats too late. . Guys in shiny ties and GQ hairdos.
Picture out the window is razor sharp. Horizontal lines stretch out so far. Reach out for a hand in the dark. . Watching all the colors drifting by. Look forever down that mountainside.
Hanging out among the living dead. Things seem to come up. Short of everything. You ever wanted in your life. . Meeting at the cemetery gates. Go through the motions.
I saw her get off the bus. Perfectly dangerous. Though I could tell the trouble she'd spell. I fell for Gabrielle. . She said, "I can't stay long. There's somewhere else I belong".
Throw away your gun,. All it takes to have fun.. . Throw away your knife,. Aint nobody got it made.. . Throw away your,. Distorted life.. . Throw away your anger, would save some tears..
