i am walking out in the rain and i am listening to the low moan of the dial tone again and i am getting nowhere with you and i can't let it go and i can't get through... the old woman behind the pink curtains and the closed door on the first floor she's listening through the air shaft to see how long our swan song can last and both hands now use both hands oh, no don't close your eyes i am writing graffiti on your body i am drawing the story of how hard we tried i am watching your chest rise and fall like the tides of my life, and the rest of it all and your bones have been my bedframe and your flesh has been my pillow i am waiting for sleep to offer up the deep with both hands in each other's shadows we grew less and less tall and eventually our theories couldn't explain it all and i'm recording our history now on the bedroom wall and when we leave the landlord will come and paint over it all and i am walking out in the rain and i am listening to the low moan of the dial tone again and i am getting nowhere with you and i can't let it go and i can't get through so now use both hands please use both hands oh, no don't close your eyes i am writing graffiti on your body i am drawing the story of how hard we tried hard we tried how hard we tried

It?s been a long road, getting from there to here. It?s been a long time, but my time is finally near. And I can feel the change in the wind right now. Nothing?s in my way. And they?re not gonna hold me down no more, no they?re not gonna hold me down.

Cause I?ve got faith of the heart. I?m going where my heart will take me. I?ve got faith to believe. I can do anything. I?ve got strength of the soul. And no one?s gonna bend or break me. I can reach any star. I?ve got faith, I?ve got faith, faith of the heart.

It?s been a long night. Trying to find my way. Been through the darkness. Now I finally have my day. And I will see my dream come alive at last. I will touch the sky. And they?re not gonna hold me down no more, no they?re not gonna change my mind.

Cause I?ve got faith of the heart. I?m going where my heart will take me. I?ve got faith to believe. I can do anything. I?ve got strength of the soul. And no one?s gonna bend or break me. I can reach any star. I?ve got faith, faith of the heart.

I?ve known the wind so cold, and seen the darkest days. But now the winds I feel, are only winds of change. I?ve been through the fire and I?ve been through the rain. But I?ll be fine.

Cause I?ve got faith of the heart. I?m going where my heart will take me. I?ve got faith to believe. I can do anything. I?ve got strength of the soul. And no one?s gonna bend or break me. I can reach any star. I?ve got faith.

I?ve got faith of the heart. I?m going where my heart will take me. I?ve got strength of the soul. And no one?s gonna bend or break me. I can reach any star. I?ve got faith, I?ve got faith, faith of the heart.

It?s been a long road.

think i'm going for a walk now i feel a little unsteady i don't want noone to follow me except maybe you

i could make you happy, you know if you weren't already i could do a lot of things and i do

tell you the truth i prefer the worst of you too bad you had to have a better half she's not really my type but i think you two are forever and i hate to say it but you're perfect together

so fuck you and your untouchable face fuck you for existing in the first place and who am i that i should be vying for your touch who am i bet you can't even tell me that much

2:30 in the morning my gas tank will be empty soon neon sign on the horizon rubbing elbows with the moon safe haven of the sleepless where the deep fryer's always on radio is counting down the top 20 country songs

out on the porch the fly strip is waving like a flag in the wind you know i really don't look forward to seeing you again soon.

you look like a photograph of yourself taken from far far away i won't know what to do i won't know what to say

so fuck you...

see you and i'm so perplexed what was i thinking what will i think of next where can i hide in the back room there's a lamp that hangs over the pool table and when the fan is on it swings gently side to side there's a changing constellation of balls as we are playing i see orion and say nothing the only thing i can think of saying

is fuck you...
