    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.
