There are days when the cage doesn't seem to open very wide at all
There are others that would shock the most indiscriminate lovers of all
My heart was made for bleeding all over you
You got a girlfriend and I can only talk about her for so very long
Then my mind turns into my heart and whispers into that dark cave that I've been wrong
My heart was made for bleeding all over you
And I know you're married but I've got feelings too
And I still love you
You moved up North, you've got a farmhouse
There's cowshit in your brain and love in your heart
I'm in the city and I'm trapped between two buildings and having to start at the start
You've got a daughter, now you're a father
You have your pack and they are wild
My heart was made for bleeding all over you
And I know you're married but I've got feelings too
And I still love you
I still love you
Na na, na na na na...
I've got feelings too
And I still love you
Yes, I still love you
. . .

I know you've got to go
And I wanted to be afraid to say
But I'm not
I'm scared to death of watch you've become
You were my only ally
Now you're looking around for an alibi
Why don't you go ask her for a second stack of lies (???)
You cheated me and I can't believe it
I've been calling since 4 o'clock last night
You cheated me and I can't believe it
I saw you singing and dancing in the rain
On the way home
You left the keys in the door when you left that night
I don't wanna point the finger but I can't help it
Why don't you run your skinny little ass down the block?
I'll catch up to you when you come back
And you cheated me and I can't believe it
I've been calling since 4 o'clock last night
You cheated me and I can't believe it
I saw you singing and dancing in the rain
On the way home
When all the bills have been unrolled
And your story has been untold
Tell me if it was worth it
To see the whole damn thing unfold
You cheated me and I can't believe it
I've been calling since 4 o'clock last night
You cheated me and I can't believe it
I saw you singing and dancing in the rain
On the way home
You cheated me and I can't believe it
I've been calling since 4 o'clock last night
You cheated me and I can't believe it
I saw you singing and dancing in the rain
On the way home

Remember when you said we'd marry
On the wilder shores of love
The tide, it changes fast
Oh when you're fast it never lasts
I cannot read between your lines
You cannot make me read your tiny mind
Oh who's got the time?
Oh you'd go blind
Jesus & Mary are taking me down
To the other side of town
Where they don't count the days
With steel blades on the walls of time
They just dance naked in the sun all the time
Whoa...
She's the jewel in your crown
But I'm the gold that's gonna wear you down
I'll keep you around this dirty old town
Every time I put the stove on
Dinner's cold by the time you come over
Oh you turn over on that cold shoulder
Jesus & Mary are taking me down
To the other side of town
Where they don't count the days
With steel blades on the walls of time
They just dance naked in the sun all the time
Whoa...
When you call and you call my name
Baby, hazy, lazy
Oh I'll sign on the dotted line
When I lie back, I lie on my back
Baby, hazy, lazy
Oh I am not an animal
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down

We had visions in the night
I was scared and you held me tight
It was like we were in black and white
As clear as day, as dark as night
Then the truth became a lie
There was no longer peace of mind
Just fear of the unknown and the unkind
And then when he undressed me
And took my body
I was resolute to being fine
Now the soldiers are all on fire
And our hearts are dead from desire
And when you say it has nothing to do
Nothing to do with you, you're a liar!
Now the sky is filled with dust
Those we've loved and those we've lost
Rebuild the towers
Make them stronger
They'll last longer
Give up your power
. . .

And the children's eyes
They turn as I walk away
I am becoming a prey (?)
And the firelight
It burns in your eyes
There are times you despise me
You criticize me
I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories
I can change the colours of the night
But the hum & the drum they stay the same
When you're tapping the same vein
And I have noticed lately
That the time that you took
To look at my face
Is gone without a trace
Oh, you despise me
I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories
And I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories
Over the years things disappear
But once in a while you call my name
In you, you've got the lovin' touch
And I live & breathe for the rush
Oh when we touch there's a rush
When we touch...
I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories
And I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories

In the middle of the night
Comes a knockin' at my door
There's a limousine outside
And I know whom it's for
And I heard it bein' read
And I heard it bein' said
Aw, that the comfort in your head
And I wonder if it doesn't create a sense of shame
In the middle of the night
Comes a knockin' at my door
There's a limousine outside
And I know whom it's for
And you're leanin' on your wheel in your car
As you walk to the top of the hill
And you hope the will in your mind
Does not jump from the edge to the climb
With a sense of shame
It was the time before the last
And you did not give up
And I threw you on the ground
And you did not get up
And I don’t know why
And I don’t know why
But the tears in your eyes
It made me want to cry
But with a sense of shame
It was the time before the last
W e did not make up
And I threw you on the ground
And you did not get up
And I don’t know why
And I don’t know why
Something in your eyes
It made me want to cry
With a sense of shame
You meet me heather deep
I bury your heart on my knees all the time
In the middle of the night
Comes a knockin' at my door
There's a limousine outside
And I know who it's for
. . .

Sometimes I feel like there is no one
no one at all
that life is a myth and I won't be missed
when I'm gone
But they say that you are no one
no one at all without the people who know and love you
around
And sometimes I feel like my Dad
for leaving her sad and alone
in this big house
And these are the thoughts that I have
when I'm alone at home in my bed
and I get scared
And it takes up so much time
and it makes up for nothing
and some people ask why I can't
remember the past
There is this dead women in my lane
she's eating my brain
her skin is soft and white and bright
against the night
There is this man in my house
when I'm not there
he says he knows me from somewhere
And it takes up so much time
. . .

I can hardly move
And I sure can't groove
I can hardly see why I'm so afraid
The days are long
I can't get rid of what's wrong
It's plain to see that the problem is in me
I wish I were a singer
A dancer
Dancing for your love
I must seem a little bit odd
Do I count as anything special
Is there sincerity in anything I say
Do I know what anything means?
Can I see?
I listen to the radio
Not music, but the talk shows
I watch a lot of PBS & BBC
I don't want to "Meet the Press"
I'm scared of what I see
The only thing I recognize
Is this pain in my side
The hunger that I feel
Is the only thing
The only thing that is real
I wish I were a singer
A dancer
Dancing for your love
Oooh...
Ah...
Doo doo doo...

Turn the key & warm up the vehicle
Window's foggy & I'm in my little bubble
Some are red, some are yellow
Black & blue & different colours
Mine is green
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go play footsie with the pedal
Get on the road
It glides underneath me
Yeah, it rides so sweetly
I love driving in my car
In my car I can see outside
I have wiped off the mirrors & they shine like glimmering glass
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no, is that you I see?
Take a left quickly
Green light, go
Red light, no
No matter on the yellow
It's so fun driving in my car
In my car I can do anything
Drive up & down the road
Maybe listen to the radio
I think I know this song
Light up a cigarette
Green light, go
Red light, no
No matter on the yellow
It's so fun driving in my car
