🎹 Lyrics That Hit The Spot

Waltz around her, waltz around her
Crystal mystery; my dreamlets
Midnight Gardener and the rose garden
Designer children, Papa's roses
Jancie, Maple, Clifford, Fist
Apple and Leona, the Lizard Girl
To love, but never to be in love
Never to be in love
To love, but never to be in love
Never to be in love
To be in love
Love
 
And of all of my regrets
Two that trouble me most
Wish I could've been better, mama
Wish I'd never took a shot of dope
 
Can you lie next to her
And give her your heart, your heart
As well as your body
And can you lie next to her
And confess your love, your love
As well as your folly
And can you kneel before the king
And say I'm clean, I'm clean
 
Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose, I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh-oh
 
“Every now and then I get down to the end of the day
I'll just stop, ask myself
Why I've done it?
It just seems so useless to have to work so hard
And nothing ever really seem to come from it.”
 
I'm not afraid of the war you've come to wage against my sins
I'm not okay, but I can try my best to just pretend
So will you wait me out
Or will you drown me out?
So will you wait me out
Or will you drown me out? (at the bottom)
I can wait for you at the bottom
I can stay away if you want me to
I can wait for years if I gotta
Heaven knows I ain't getting over you
I know the pain that you hide behind the smile on your face
And not a day goes by where I don't think I feel the same
So will you wait me out
Or will you drown me out?
So will you wait me out
Or will you drown me out?
I can wait for you at the bottom
I can stay away if you want me to
I could wait for years if I gotta
Heaven knows I ain't getting over you
We'll try again
When we're not so different
We will make amends
Till then I'll just pretend
Weigh down on me
Stay till morning
Way down, would you say I'm worthy?
Weigh down on me
Stay till morning
Way down, would you say I'm worthy?
 
So how do I apologize
And put the tears back in your eyes
When every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece made of my mistakes?
 
I tear my heart open
I see my hear shut
My weakness is
That I care too much
Our scars remind us that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel
 
All the world just stopped now
So you say you don't wanna stay together anymore
Let me take a deep breath babe
If you need me
Me and Neil'll be hangin' out with the dream king
Neil says hi
By the way I don't believe you're leaving
Cause me and Charles Manson like the same ice cream
I think it's that girl
And I think they're pieces of me you've never seen
Maybe she's just pieces of me you've never seen well

All the world is all I am
The black of the blackest ocean
And the tear in your hand
All the world is danging...
Dangling'...Danglin' for me darlin'
You don't know the power that you have
With that tear in your hand
 
And I hope the sun shines and it's a beautiful day
And something reminds you, you wish you had stayed
You can plan for a change in the weather and time
But I never planned on you changing your mind
So I'll go
Sit on the floor wearing your clothes
All that I know is I don't know
How to be something you miss
 
How long could we be a sad song
'Til we were too far gone to bring back to life?
I gave you all my best me's, my endless empathy
And all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier
Fighting in only your army
Frontlines, don't you ignore me
I'm the best thing at this party
(You're losin' me)
And I wouldn't marry me either
A pathological people pleaser
Who only wanted you to see her
And I'm fadin', thinkin'
"Do something, babe, say something" (say something)
"Lose something, babe, risk something" (you're losin' me)
"Choose something, babe, I got nothing (got nothing)
To believe
Unless you're choosin' me"
You're losin' me
 
When it's midnight
And your mind is a mess, wanna run away, darlin'
Feels like hell 'cause no one really understands you
Know you're not alone
I'll go anywhere the wind blows
I'll walk you back 'til you say the doors closed
Call me on your way home
If something at the party
Made you think of me
If you ain't breathing hardly
From your anxieties
Doesn't matter if you're wasted
If you're sober
Yeah, you always got my shoulder
Call me on your way home
 
My cards are on the table, yours are in your hand
Chances are, tonight, you've already got plans
And chances are I will talk myself to sleep again
You give me just enough attention to keep my hopes too high
Wishful thoughts forget to mention when something's really not right
And I will block out these voices of reason in my head
And the voices say, "You are not the exception
You will never learn your lesson"
Foolish one
Stop checkin' your mailbox for confessions of love
That ain't never gonna come
You will take the long way, you will take the long way down
You know how to keep me waitin'
I know how to act like I'm fine
Don't know what to call this situation
But I know I can't call you mine
And it's delicate, but I will do my best to seem bulletproof
 
I looked into your eyes
Thought I knew you for a minute, now I'm not so sure
So here's to everything coming down to nothing
Here's to silence, that cuts me to the core
Where is this going? Thought I knew for a minute, but I don't anymore
And I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called
And then you feel so low you cant feel nothing at all
And you flashback to when he said, "Forever and always"
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom
Everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
'Cause I was there when you said, "Forever and always"
 
Over the edge I can't stop myself
Off the ledge throwing punches
Over the edge I can't steer myself
All over again, I don't want this
If I bend then I might not breathe
I should think about giving in
If I bend then it might be okay
If we're thinking about how it ends
 
Please wrap your drunken arms around me
And I'll let you call me yours tonight
Cause slightly broken's just what I need
And if you give me what I want
Then I'll give you what you like
Please tell me I'm your one and only
Or lie and say at least tonight
I've got a brand new cure for lonely
And if you give me what I want
Then I'll give you what you like
When you turn off the lights
I get stars in my eyes
Is this love?
Maybe someday
So don't turn on the lights
I'll give you what you like
Emotions aren't that hard to borrow
When love's a word you've never learned
Maybe one day
So don't turn on the lights
I'll give you what you like
I'll give you one last chance to hold me
If you give me one last cigarette
By now it's only in the morning
Now that I gave you what you want
All I want is to forget
 
I'm working on erasing you
Just don't have the proper tools
I get hammered, forget that you exist
There's no way I'm forgetting this
I'm working hard on walking out
Shoes keep sticking to the ground
My clothes won't let me close the door
Cause the trousers seem to love your floor
 
I will see you on the other side
I am your night girl, rip my heart out
Darkness falling yet another night
Come on Lost Boys, let's stay alive

Goodnight my Lost Boys
Thou shall not fear
Goodnight my sweetheart
 
Heading for the great escape
Heading for the rave
Heading for the permanent holiday
Heading for the winter trip
Heading for the slide
Heading for the dignified walk away

Heading for the open road
Goodbye to all that
Heading for the automatic overload

Standing in the open boat
Standing in the swing
Waiting for the ringing and the bright light

Waiting to be recognised
Quiet applause will do
They shower you with flowers when they bury you

You're holding on, you're holding on ...
 
[I. The Last Of You]

Just when I thought I'd seen the last of you
You come here scratchin' at my door
Your pain and anger's in the howling dark
Of every corridor I walk

So tell me more about the love that you rejected
Tell me more about the trust you disrespected
I still don't know, why did you hurt the very one
Why did you hurt the very one
That you should have protected?
 
[II. Falling From The Moon]

Don't ask me why I'm doing this
You wouldn't understand
You're asking the wrong questions
You couldn't understand

A bridge is not a high place
The fifty-second floor
Icarus would know
A mountain isn't far to fall

When you've fallen
When you've fallen from the moon

I'm ashes on the water now, somewhere far away
I have fallen, fallen from the moon
