Take off your shoes... Take off yourself
|
Take off your rented mental health
|
Take off your raincoat... settle down
|
Take off your nightmare and your frown
|
There is a place for you to go
|
To see another ringer in a rock show
|
Take my pretense for a time
|
Cause I want to say to you
|
|
I'm nobody without you...buddy
|
My long lost friend
|
|
If you're not here to hear me scream
|
Am I silent like a dream
|
Where all the dragons are my friends
|
Each night we meet our bitter ends
|
Do I need you to make me real
|
Like Wheeler spinning his own wheel
|
Quantum strings within my brain
|
Popping sanities insane
|
|
I'm nobody without you...buddy
|
My long lost friend
|
|
Not everybody has a brain
|
Not everybody's going sane
|
Not everybody wishes well
|
Not everybody's heaven's hell
|
Sometimes there's someone to blame
|
Sometimes a place for shame
|
Sometimes good's better than bad
|
Sometimes good's better than bad
|
Sometimes good's better than bad
|
Sometimes you're better than me
|
|
Heaven fell on herself tonight
|
As the devil met me in the wishing well
|
And in that moment I found myself knowing
|
That in the end it's just about you and me
|
Nothing smaller or larger
|
Though dragons are good for the soul
|
Nothing can be better than baring yourself for another...
|
Open for scrutiny, ridicule, and indulgence
|
Therein lies the balls, and the mind, and the heart...
|
As fear is truly the Mindkiller...
|
When nothing is left...
|
Everything is gained...
|
You see I wish I was a poet
|
But I know as we go round and round
|
Though endings are never ever happy
|
It's the happy moments along the way
|
That in the end
|
Make it...ok...
|
