The body keeps the score passing out on the floor As the party raged on, the fireplace roared While the snow fell outside on the salt and the ice Felt my will to live slipping away
And then you came along wanted help with a song Want a peep through the curtains to see how it´s done We´re all make believe gods like the Wizard of Oz "Name the animals, let there be light"
Growing old and confused, beauty´s wasted on youth There´s too much to redact, there´s too much to include I hate the moon, but I´d take it from you I want anything you have to give Used to wait, around, for a handout Pleading in the street But you´re all that I, beg for now
Hot in LA tonight, real feel 105º
If the grid don´t give out maybe we will survive I can tell where you´ve been from the look in your eyes Watch your mind as it wanders away
I was selfish and cruel, to have put that on you Oh, where you saw a rope swing, I saw a noose There´s too much to untangle, to get to the truth What I was thinking I just couldn´t say
My longing used, to know no bounds Always incomplete But you´re all that I´m, wanting now
You don´t have to explain, no nothing has changed Come back to me I still feel the same Dry lighting strikes, there´s no one to blame ´Cause all that we were, will always remain
I´m so tired, of all, this light and sound Asleep on my feet You´re all that I, dream of now Come over here, lay back down You´re all that I dream of
