[00:00.33]Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes
[00:08.45]I can barely define the shape of this moment in time
[00:16.70]And far from flying high in clear blue skies
[00:25.22]I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide
[00:33.92]If you negotiate the minefield in the drive
[00:42.65]And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes
[00:50.72]And if you make it past the shotguns in the hall
[00:59.36]Dial the combination, open the priesthole
[01:07.40]And if I'm in I'll tell you
[01:12.88]🎵
[01:16.09]There's a kid who had a big hallucination
[01:24.15]Making love to girls in magazines
[01:31.88]He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith
[01:40.29]Could anybody love him or is it just a crazy dream
[01:51.11]🎵
[02:04.85]And if I show you my dark side
[02:12.14]Will you still hold me tonight?
[02:21.44]And if I open my heart to you
[02:28.45]And show you my weak side
[02:32.74]What would you do?
[02:38.38]Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?
[02:44.36]🎵
[02:46.44]Would you take the children away and leave me alone?
[02:54.21]And smile in reassurance as you whisper down the phone
[03:02.87]Would you send me packing or would you take me home?
[03:14.49]🎵
[03:56.52]Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings
[04:04.72]Thought I oughta tear the curtain down
[04:12.24]I held the blade in trembling hands
[04:15.86]Prepared to make it, but
[04:20.77]Just then the phone rang
[04:25.49]I never had the nerve to make the final cut
[04:29.46]🎵
