can't imagine what life could be without an instrument to call my own check the pressure of my blood, it's high no one's tellin' me that I did good this time that i'm doin' fine stuck inside the registrar's lobby and I'm lookin' for my pen shooting blindly at all of my motives coming up too short sweepin' me under the mat check the deep recesses of my brain for a tune to sing another day what was I thinkin' that I could compare to the people that eat and breathe the sweetest melodies stuck inside the registrar's lobby and I'm lookin' for my pen shooting blindly at all of my motives coming up too short sweepin' me under the mat

Some days I act like my life is so hard, baby but what do I know? what do I do? It's nothing compared to you I looked at my life and I thought that I like you around and I told myself that I'd be the better man for you and here we are, dear and I'm lettin' you down lettin' you drown leading you on puttin' you off when you need someone to love you but what do I know? what do I do? It's nothing compared to you you know, I can't help it if I haven't shown it lately the girl that I love who I'm always dreamin' of is nobody else but you I looked at my life and I thought that I like you around and I told myself that I'd be the better man for you and here we are, dear and I'm lettin' you down lettin' you drown leading you on puttin' you off when you need someone to love you the girl that I love the one I've been dreamin' of is nobody else but you

Rosebush 05:13
I never understood what love was I fell into an endless rosebush I never understood what life until I saw what came before given just one more day I coulda spent the night with you given just another day I coulda spent the night with you I wanna be the one there I wanna taste your stone serpentine hair I wanna turn to stone then we can be alone there given just one more day I coulda spent the night with you given just another day I coulda spent the night with you I fell into an endless rosebush I fell into an endless rosebush I fell into an endless rosebush I fell into an endless rosebush I fell into an endless rosebush I fell into an endless rosebush

there is a boy that no one knows who hides away so we can’t tell him how good it could be then he won’t have to start to regret the day he chose to shut the world off and live in a dream he used to go on and on and on speaking with great emotion now all those days are dead and gone there was a time when I would think that anyone could see the warning of flare in the sky but we cannot always be secure inside a body like a statue and thick as a rock there’s nothing that I could ever say he’s got your full devotion maybe it’s me that’s got to change

I am envious of your spirit wind spinnin’ ‘round your home I am jealous of the fire demon that has engulfed you which pulls the scum like me into you I am jealous of everyone you know I don’t want you to be happy on your own I want to become you if I am to exist in this world I am jealous of your spirit wind it does not exist I am jealous of everyone you know I don't want you to be happy on your own In my dreams, I am son to the fire demon I dream as he punctures the mind veil

when we begin to realize that time is gone we’ll soon decide that everything must change again be strange again why can’t my friends all stay? they had to go away when we believe our actions have no consequence we’re not aware that maybe we have changed someone to feel like someone why can’t my friends all stay? things just turned out that way
