Falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Winter is here again, oh Lord,
I got a crack in my windshield
Hear the whistle blowin' so long
I swapped my innocence for pride
Hey now the well run dry
Junkies down in Brooklyn are going crazy
You need coolin', baby, I'm not foolin'
You put the boom boom into my heart
When you go to Rwanda, Congo,
Son, you've got a way to fall
Your own personal Jesus,
She was sittin' at a bar in LAX
I never meant to be so bad to you,
With a purple umbrella and a fifty cent hat
Walk out into velvet
Got no future, great big past
Oh no, not he,
Talk to me softly
If it keeps on rainin', the levee is going to break
If you be my star, I'll be your sky
I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
Untie me, I've said no vows
Seventeen a nature's queen, ya know what I mean
I've got the key to the highway
well, it could've been worse! i kind of like it! i like the "jesus/she" part. teehee. and i like the last stanza. it makes perfect sense on its own!
