lyrics

Come back time
And then time will politely decline
There is strain in my heart
When you don't want it
When I'm the thing you truly despise
Could you please find at least
Find Someone, or two, or more of your kind
Someone, who cannot tell when I'm lying

Down my spine
There are walls and there's fear in my mind
There are dreams
Which I don't really wanna care for
There's disaster and it comes in all kinds
Could you please take a picture
Of me with this huge statue of Christ
Will you bleed on my belly tonight

I know sometimes I act a little crazy
So many things for you to call me maybe
So many things that you don't wanna understand

In my prime
I watch everything politely decline
I'm afraid to be stabbed by somebody
And bleed inside of black and white tiles
Could you please protect me
From the things that I try so hard to hide
Will you feel, feel the pain deep inside

Come back time
And then time will politely fly by
Lick the foam from my lips in Ipanema
And sleep while having white bread and wine
Could you please forget me
Just this once so I can have a good time
While someone dowsed in gas starts a fire
