Everyday i wait for you to come around
But who knows when that'll be.
I've watched the rain fall fast and sound
Until my heart is meek,
And my heart is meek but I don't live so bad it seems.
Cassius and Brutus watch me so closely,
Jealous, everyday our eyes meet.
They've got their minds full but mostly
They want to get a hand on me.
I don't know why, really, but you keep on asking
Why the cars that beep at us are yelling just at me?
I can only guess they see my thoughts and disagree
At the visions of my broken memories.
You don't believe anything I say honey,
So why even try to explain this?
You've walked in to see me naked, but hey,
You don't have to reminisce
I wont try to remind you of the day we kissed.
I'll put on my clothes to hide
All the thoughts that swarm outside.
With their horns they stride
To let you know I might've died.
Well darling I've tried,
And all things set aside;
You've never been denied
My heart is open for the tide.
How many times tonight will you repeat yourself?
We walk in circles, distracted, in spite
Of the strings i've pulled to put you on a shelf
Where I thought you would be quite safe at night.
Don't listen to the saxophones, they lie
Their sound is not to amuse you.
They silently wait around for me to spy
And then embelish the truth.
I wonder if Romeo had to suffer this,
The everyday crying of Dark Dory.
I'm ready to out match his kiss
If thats his only call to glory.
And if not, i will still try
To write one more love story.
But first theres one that's sad
Involving someone called bad.
And the life that he once had
Ended shortly and I'm not glad.
They always shoot to kill-- the cops
And nobody stands a chance.
Captain Hook will not stop
Until one side is shot to France.
As the police blasts the crook
I yell for a misfire.
Because they don't know captain Hook
Or that he plays the lyre.
And then I look in the mirror again
Thinking of who I really am.
My problems with you are a pain
But I'm not being shot and slammed.
