Album: Up the Stairs and Through the Hall

she says too much
when she sleepwalks around
her hips are a warm sarcophagus

she's so sadistic
when she's sober and oh,
self-destructive and sexy
when the weather's hot

oh and i want her to know
that my heart ain't carved of stone
oh and i want her to know
that my heart is on the road

she fences heartbreak across the border
and builds a better bird house out of oak (?)
she laughs when the main protagonist's family dies
and i wouldn't trust her when she drives toinght (?)

oh and i want her to know
that my heart ain't carved of stone
oh and i want her to know
that my heart is on the road

?
...bird shot and left in the desert to die
?
...bird shot and left in the desert to drive (?)

and i want her to know
that my heart ain't carved of stone
and i want her to know
that my heart ain't carved of bone
and i want her to know
that my heart ain't a bar of soap
and i want her to know
that my heart is just as cold

what'll i do
what things do i do
even though i know we are
what should i say
it's already been said better
one hundred times before

it's so lovely
when the world's alive
...shoots words out of control (?)
it's so lovely
when the worlds collide
and the shit spins out of control

what'll i do
the things we do
even though we know we are
what should i say
it's already been said better
by someone else
