Story Behind the Song
an old song with everpresent meaning for me.
there is great safety in addiction. to the
media, to a lover, to a feeling, to a mindset,
to an institution, to sex, to sugar, to a moment,
to a word, to an illusion. breaking free from
safety is the hard part.
this song is about trying to leave addictions.
Lyrics
no more scratches in these walls
no more syrup eyed embrace
the panic breathes in all too far
serenity always leaves a trace
im leavin u
gone the tinsel flavored cinema
traded for the novelty of flight
thru sine wave dreams, mood vaccines,
and the complicated night
im leavin u
the finger pulls the trigger, babe
the trigger pulls the gun
but who pulls the finger, babe?
what the hell have i done
im leaving u
~~~
fearless
looking for a voice
parked in a hot car
triumphant with life
i tried to keep it together
to have slice of american pie
but i've come to know
there's only so many marbles
so much empty glass
that one fool can hold
said: i've come to know
there's only so many marbles
so much empty glass
that one fool, that one fool can hold
so i jumped that fence
only to find
greener grass rife with neglect
and freedom's bell exacts a different toll
freedom's bell exacts a different toll
perhaps id go back
and rejoin that circle to nowhere
if somewhere in these rolling hills
i could only find
that fucking fence
can't help the things i do
can't help the things i say
yknow sometimes sometimes i believe
i was just born this way
just born this way:
born to hurt you
born to desert you
born to give you my all and then take it away
born to hurt you
born to desert you
born to give you my all
and then take it away now baby...
so unlock your door and i'll let myself in
and i'll sing you my song for a bottle of gin
i'll sing about a tower
or maybe 'bout a flower
i'd sing it for an hour
or maybe just a minute
but we'd both be in it
just one more minute...
before im gone
(so unlock your door and i'll let myself in
and i'll sing you my song for a bottle of gin)
~~~
terrified without your torture
where would i be without your stains
i serve you, you serve me up
what less in life could i attain?
the finger's on the trigger, baby
the trigger's gonna come
so why sit around and linger, babe?
the worst is yet to come
im leavin u
someday....
~~~
FIND IT FOR YOURSELF
NOBODY ELSE
FIND IT FOR YOURSELF
AINT NOBODY ELSE
WHO CAN TOUCH YOUR SKY
WHO CAN TEACH YOU HOW TO FLY
THERE'S NOTHING TO SEE HERE
THERE'S NOWHERE TO GO TO
DON'T EVEN BE THAT
DON'T EVEN TOUCH IT
I HAVE ALREADY BEEN FOUND.
