Oh papa, don't be so mad
I'm taking the car for so very fast
You won't mind it missing at all
Oh papa
C'est ça va, don't worry 'bout me
I'll be safe, come home early
You won't mind me missing at all
Oh papa
Oh papa, don't be so mad
I'm taking the car for so very fast
You won't mind me missing at all
Oh papa

Without a song I left the city
Borrowed a car with no radio
Gone before the sun had a chance to shine
The free wind weighed on my mind
How many roads begin under dark umbrella
They can see the memory of love
Comes a tune, clearing way like a siren
Shifting soon every thought in my head
'Til they all get tangled up in blue
This melody promises me someday words will come
And when they do, I'll shape them into a song
. . .

She wanted love, love, crazy love
Love, love, love, love
Crazy love
Amour fou
Amour fou

Makeshift moon mends a broken sky
Fields of fallow still stands dry
Night not gentle, soon for the night
Her mistake was to trust in him
His bodily excuse again
Yeah, the voices hard like the wind
Said, "I'm tired of you coming home late"
"I will do as I please, Kate
"There's no one gon' tell me how to be"
"Not for my sake, Tom, for the family"
He read guilt when she pled love
Got anxious and began to shove
Clouds have been kept loomed above
Curses raise the kids from bed
They fell down the stairs in time to see
The blood run (???) down Kate's head
While the wounds in silence came to scars
Tom kept hitting and (???) (????) bars
All the love vanished in the air
Filled with paper vows and the angels' share

Night kills day
And I'm watching the sun die
Living moon taking up the whole sky
Live moon don't care about a dead sun
Luna's begun
Darkness might never come to end
Deathly light marks the scene of the crime
Making night's murder harder to bear
Beware
The moon drives the seas insane
Soon the tide will take you in
Why you, why bother to explain
See the lunatic hanging in the sky
His confession carried by the wind
Lies and says the sun will rise again
You and I know different
Darkness might never come to end
Deathly light marks the scene of the crime
Making night's murder harder to bear
Take care
The moon drives the seas insane
Soon the tide will take you in
Why you, why bother to explain
The moon drives the seas insane
Soon the tide will take you in
Why you, why bother to explain

Bells will chime
Miles appear
I can't heed them all
Two eyes
Less than two eyes
Is more than enough to know
When to leave
Why to stay
How to keep away
Now feels like forever
Once it goes away
Bells will chime
Miles appear
I can't heed them all
Two eyes
Less than two eyes
Is more than enough to know
When to leave
Why to stay
How to keep away
Now feels like forever
Once it goes away

Nameless as the way we started
I'd like to go
Back to time before name
Name for all we know
When the room was filled with chances
No one would take
We collided with them
Knowing chances fade
Proving that to keep from hiding
Means you must play on a nerve
Under the weight of skin and bone
Dotted lines divide
The shape of things to come
Giving up anticipation
For certainty
Wasn't nearly as good
As we hoped it'd be
Pulling back the sheets and covers
Only to find
The freight and baggage that grows
On the family tree
If loving only comes with effort
Could we still be on a nerve
Under the weight of skin and bone
Dotted lines divide
The shape of things to come
Feeling on the edge of being
Taken aback
By the damage we did
With the sense we lack
Thieving over intonation
Tuning at last on a nerve
Under the weight of skin and bone
Dotted lines divide
The shape of things to come
