Your own personal Jesus
She eyes me like a Pisces
when I am weak
I found out what it is that’s been driving me mad –
There’s no room to breathe
between the good and the bad –
A crush in-between, there’s a thin, thin line –
But just ’round the corner, there’s a change in design
There has always been a dividing line
I wish I could walk away
And dig what the preachers say
But those words don’t satisfy me no more
Double cross the vacant and the bored –
They’re not sure just what we have in store
Jesus and his lawyer are coming back
Hey!
Wait!
I’ve got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice…
Your Advice…
Just fifty more years we’re all gonna know
Why, when, where, how, and who gets to go
So let’s all have a good time before the great divide
‘Cause things will start separating come 2025
I’ve been locked inside your
heart-shaped box…
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya see –
‘Cause they got no place to be
Any way the wind blows,
doesn’t really matter to me,
to me
So look for the subtle clues
It won’t make the front-page news
That depends upon which side that you choose
And who knows
which is which
and who is who
Painful to me –
Pierce right through me –
Can’t you understand?
I saw the world spin beneath you
All of those selves that you tried –
Wasn’t one of them good enough?
