Blasting from a speaker is the manic symphony Sadness in a TV tube Siphoning from me I wish I was a better friend I wish that this brain would mend I wish I was a skeleton Then maybe I could clear my head Ebbing are emotions Ceasing like the tide Burning like the confusion I always try to hide It is not fair I should not be So wishy washy Demanding I never seem To get a grip To let it happen Take the step Away. Wish I could just be her's today Away Wish I could just be her's to stay. I wish I was a macho man I wish I had a God to plan I wish I had a fucking clue I wish I knew if me or you From me to you From me to you From me to you I'll pay my dues I've never been this down before I've never been this up before I've never felt like something more I've never felt like such a bore I feel like such a fucking wretch I am so goddamned innocent I have no fucking confidence I don't know what should I expect? Alone In the swiftly falling rain It chills the bones And yet inside I feel the same The love is warm It flows and swells and numbs the pain But pain won't go It's clinging to me all the same. But not when I Feel the warmth of her embrace But not when I Am pressing up against her face But not when I Am laying with her in my room But not when I Feel like she knows what she don't know
