Standing here on venice beach, that broken dream painted never land, I'm singing out ocean size but its the sun I want to be. Theres a man on stilts juggling fire balls and a guru singing on rollerskates," if you want nothing you got it all so celebrate your every fall". Damn my eyes, I've been a fool, this isn't the end of the line. My old man's getting ready to die he says," you know I never believed in god, but if the hindus are right please let me be a black hole, so I can feel" ...but then he says, "man if thats too grand let me come back a tadpole, then at least I'll amuse the kids, and they'll know what life's about." Damn my eyes I've been a fool, this isn't the end of the line. There's nothing new about this song, smiling's been hard and I've been wrong. Done too much lying and I'm tired of trying and this time I want to get it right, so I'm keeping it simple like my old man, hoping for more but happy with less, and if I've bored you with drivel and you expected more, don't worry, I'm just passing through. Damn my eyes, I've been a fool this isn't the end of the line.

My story wasn't new to her, she gets them all the time. pushing and pulling, untwisting knots she says, "you know this takes a lot". I wanted to care she said, "don't you dare, if you want something, shoot from the hip, too much sugar will make you sick". I thought it twice and I thought it some more, I said, " well hey there what about love?" She said, " I don't know, you tell me, does it ever come for free? If I kiss you in the middle of the night will you wake me and say its all right? Skin thin, the space between us is delicate, nothing ever comes for free... it takes a lot to be good."

Everyone agrees, nicest girl in the world, she makes chandaliers out of bones. When you hold her head you see cathedrals, scafoldings to the stars. She made me want to do nothing, nothing but her. She kept me warm for me to dream. She steals all the time she can, only to give you more. Yes- she still believes that we're all good. Her eyes are laughing children, you can hear them in the rain. Don't talk too loud, you'll make them cry. She made me want to do nothing, nothing but her. She kept me warm for me to dream. And everyone agrees I am the fool who broke her heart , now I'm spinning like a ghost with no where to go. She made me want to do nothing, nothing but her. She kept me warm for me to dream. Everyone agrees, nicest girl in the world, she makes chandaliers out of bones. With her all is always one and it always falls together. She never really knows, but it always falls together, just the way she wants.xxxxxmore here
