How sad and tired, the fault of blind devotion In the spirit of a crying child, never learned how to quiet down A plague, desire one the flood and one fire As you're nearer will you feel its weight? If you see it will you know its face? A mother's love knows when it has seen too much Ring out, like bells Can you hear it when you give enough? A pair of glowing eyes in the forest Do you run or sleep through it? Lights out, big talk come back when the going gets tough Unsure, flat out Can you feel it when I'm not around? Fists up and you swing at the first chance you outlive my impatience Oh, follow me down to the wire said you would but you're just so tired Don't go hover all night So slow riding the bike

I could stay at home and read by the light of the T.V I want to know what's gonna happen with my eyes closed, please don't tell me what is coming guess I shouldn't know As you're filling up with greed the one you're gonna feed is gonna be the strongest so you know its face gonna be the brightest so you know its name I could live here, I could wait here I live outside in the winter I flourish without walls and if I'm starving or I'm freezing I will eat off my own arm You will make your bed, we all lie in it there's another way out we're so far away now We all lie in it

I would hesitate I would not go back funny as it is, funny as it was When it comes it pours Heaven bring a storm Heaven bring me shit I cannot afford You will settle down, funny as it was I wouldn't have it any other way This is what you know, Familiar hollow heavy as it is, funny as it was Laugh 'cause it's a joke it always ends the same but you wouldn't have it any other way On the seventh night the sky went black on the eighth I cried and he has echoed back "come back" On the final night I sit and wait for the lord to come and seal my fate but I'm bored, he's bored and wants more

getting up hungover when you slept with all the lights on you will wash your hands and you will open all the windows absolve me of my sins i never wanted to desert thee- you knew just where to find me, wide awake and i am thirsty fearing every day i could dissolve in you completely fearing every day i could dissolve i'm on a leash and i'm a runner with your full weight on my shoulders i can't go past this door but i do hear it's getting warmer good news is on its way to those of us who have been patient i take it with a grain of salt, but i'll still surely take it i see you in the backyard cutting grass and pinning laundry to the line between the trees i think i felt your heart collapsing you're an only child and you're feeling somewhat cheated- the lonely go to heaven so i'm feeling optimistic on a leash and i'm a runner with your full weight on my shoulders a consolation prize of sorts for which i've been so grateful good news has made its way to those of us who have been patient and nothing's really changed, the heavy serving as a constant one should never fear their neighbor, we aren't too unalike we fall asleep at different times i'll love you for my whole life don't forget me when you get big i'll love you for my whole life don't forget me when you get big i'll love you for my whole life don't forget me when you get big love you all of my life, don't forget me when you make it
