It抯 a garbage truck hour, I抦 sleeping in the shower
I抦 feeling like I抦 waiting on a train
By the sounds from my bed I think somebody抯 bled
All over something someone抯 keeping clean
I don抰 need anything, just make it bright
Then turn it low
You don抰 need more than me
You could live right there beneath the stairs
I抳e done it, I抳e said all I can, I抳e reached the end
Now you must learn to bend
Bend to the floor, taste the core
You抮e not going nowhere
Leave the money right there
I feel the arrow sticking in my ear
We owe so much we pawned
Now watch the power come undone
I抦 standing on my head to watch the day just drift away
This city always makes the same mistakes, asleep or awake
I抦 sick of waking up inside white balloons
Inside of blue balloons
New york air is sweet tonight
There抯 no stars but that抯 all right
I抦 breathing
I feel you through your fear
Pull the arrow from my ear
Tonight we抣l take a different way home
They say the fire burns but won抰 consume
But it does consume
You抮e slick, you shoplift
What抯 left of my brain
You haven抰 changed
This city always makes the same mistakes,
It抯 just like me
It always breaks in two
I抦 sick of me for being sick of you
We抣l take a gypsy cab to heaven or hell
Time will tell
