You're not so vicious, are you now? I feel ok to walk you down That ancient floor, i won't fall this time An ashtray full of things i proved Smolders in wait for the crisis of the day The same refrain, but i remain removed It must be nice to burn your shoes You get a new pair every afternoon The same old style, they don't jump too high Same intonation as they walk that groove Down to the basement, to crank the stereo While i explain why i remain removed I remain removed I've wasted every ounce of wonder I could lose I promise you i would be elsewhere if i could And stay for good There was whispers of waters on the lawn Where we once crashed, that ugly Sunday dawn A makeshift sidewinding blender surprise Dancing upon collapsing roofs One for the fading moon and one for block the sun From all these stains that remain un-removed I remain removed I've wasted every ounce of wonder I could lose I promise you i would be elsewhere if i could And stay for good
