Run, Tommy, run |
|
Did you get all you want? |
|
Did you drink their world dry |
|
And extinguish all the sunshine? |
|
I didn't say that I felt the same |
|
You just took it as read |
|
As I closed all the blinds |
|
And put you to bed |
|
And read you all the last rites |
|
It serves as a warning to me, |
|
Just like most of these days do |
|
'Cause I just wish that |
|
I could've just left you there |
|
Sitting in your own shit |
|
'Cause I know that you would, me too |
|
See, 'cause I've gone through all this before |
|
And I've bought that skinny tee |
|
With a big, black gaping hole where the heart should be |
|
That says, "Baby, I renounce thee" |
|
Don't you die on me now |
|
A kiss is now a circus show |
|
The big, top tent and neon glow |
|
Through spectacles of rainbow red |
|
You never feel your love till it's dead |
|
Arm's length keep him |
|
Stop and don't endure |
|
No one ever paused |
|
Empty as a hole and ever depleting |
|
What I'm for makes us whole |
|
A bankruptcy of love |
|
Could not swim above |
|
Empty as a hole and ever depleting |
|
I recoil from the blast |
|
And look around me |
|
Neither friend nor foe |
|
Empty as a hole and ever depleting |
