She shot you down and crushed your dreams She showed you what lookin' in from the outside really means And with a meat hook where your pride used to be You find out life can be more tangled than it seems
Sleepin' in the bedroom, climbin' in the dark womb of your twisted, tangled mind. Cryin' out for Moses, lookin' for the roses and weeds are all you find Keepin' on a night light, hiding from the sunshine, eating with a plastic spoon You've got to lie, deny and cover your eyes just to get them out of the room
Where is this masterpiece of love? This thing you've been dreaming of? An open and honest friend And when your heart starts to break and everything's at stake Can you really run away again?
You loved the idea half to death Coffee, rain, smoke and baby's breath Killing all the warning signs like pests But now you feel just as cheated as the rest
Wantin' bodhisattva gettin' Jimmy Hoffa, the biggest dickhead wins And if you ever asked her which one of you mastered the art of giving in Yeah she'd tell you that she loved you put nothing else above you, met you on the middle line Ah, but she's got needs that you can't see and you let her down every time
Where is this masterpiece of love? This thing you've been dreaming of? An open and honest friend And when your heart starts to break and everything's at stake Can you really run away again?
You used to be so big and strong long ago, but now you find yourself shaking You used to answer all the questions with a smug certainty, but now you find your faith breaking
The years are coming faster, life is a disaster and everywhere you look Theories and opinions coming from the minions putting your worth on the books Staring at the ceiling, waiting for that feeling to come and lift you up Ah, but you got yourself here and you better take care that you don't get yourself stuck.
Where is this masterpiece of love? This thing you've been dreaming of? An open and honest friend And when your heart starts to break and everything's at stake Can you really run away again?
