You've got a nerve to be asking a favor You've got a nerve to be calling my number, I know, We've been through this before. Can't you hear me I'm, calling out your name Can't you see me i'm, pounding on your door
You've got a nerve to be asking a favor You've got a nerve to be calling my number. Can't you hear me I'm, beating on the wall Can't you see me I'm, pounding on your door Can't you hear me when I'm, calling out your name.
When I used to go out I would know everyone that I saw Now I go out alone if I go out at all When I used to go out I would know everyone that I saw Now I go out alone if I go out at all When I used to go out I would know everyone that I saw Now I go out alone if I go out at all
You've got a nerve to be asking a favor You've got a nerve to be calling my number, I know, We've been through this before. Can't you hear me I'm, beating on the wall Can't you see me I'm, Pounding on your door
After leaving my apartment I feel this cold inside me It howls away all through the market It calls your name Ooohh Ooohh oohh On my way to your apartment I write for fear of silence You carved a boat to sail my shadow Now I walk alone Ooohh Ooohh oohh Alright, alright I hit the sidewalk and this is how it starts Hide in a raincoat when things are falling apart After leaving your apartment I hear the coast by nightfall So sure to keep you dreaming You understood Oh, I know you understood Yes sir, it shows I was no good Aaaahhh Alright, alright I hit the sidewalk and this is how it starts Hide in a raincoat when things are falling apart Cause sooner or later this is bound to stop Come on, let's savor what we're falling for After leaving your apartment I hear the coast...
All God's children need travelling shoes Drive your problems from here All good people read good books Now your conscience is clear [x2]
In the morning when I wipe my brow Wipe the miles away I like to think I can be so willed And never do what you say [x2]
[CHORUS:] Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist in my sobriety [x3]
We just poked a little pie For the fun that people have at night Late at night don't need hostility The timid smile and pause to free
I don't care about their different thoughts Different thoughts are good for me Up in arms and chaste and whole All God's children took their toll
[CHORUS]
Cup of tea take time to think yeah Time to risk a life a life a life Sweet and handsome soft and porky You pig out 'til you've seen the light Pig out 'til you've seen the light
Half the people read the papers Read them good and well Pretty people nervous people People have got to sell News you have to sell
What
would you do If it all came back to you Each crest of each
wave Bright as lightning What would you say If you had to
leave today Leave everything behind Even though for once your
shining
Standing on higher ground But when you hear the
sounds You realise it's just a whim And you notice it
matters Who and what you let under your skin
If put to the
test Would you step back from the line of fire Hold everything
back All emotions and desires
Convince yourself to be
someone else And hold back from the world Your lack of
confidence What you choose to believe in Dictates your rise or
your fall Dictates your rise or your fall
With no one else
around you No one to understand you No one to hear your
calls Look through all your dark corners When you're backed up
against the wall Step back from the line of fire
What would
you do If it all came back to you Each crest of each
wave Bright as lightning
I'd do the same as you would do
the same as you do the same as you do the same as you I'd do
the same as you would do the same as you would do the same as
you What you choose to believe in Dictates your rise or your
fall
With no one else around you No one to understand
you No one to hear your calls Look through all your dark
corners When you're backed up against the wall Step back from
the line of fire Step back from the line of fire Step back from
the line of fire Step back from the line of fire Step back from
the line of fire Step back from the line of fire Step back from
the line of fire Step back from the line of fire Oh
