Lord, let me die in the Iodine State Palmetto rose in the AC vent Cross-stitched pillow where the head rest went He said his cab was his orneriest friend Left him jumping like trees in the wind Thought he had the red lights memorized Glass in the gravel

I've taken all and I've endured One day it all will fade I don't owe you anything I thought I knew all it took to bother you Every word I said was true that you'll see How could it be I'm the only one who sees your rehearsed insanity I still refuse all

Ah, why won't they talk to me? (I thought I was happy) Out of the zone I guess I'll go home Try to be sane Try to pretend None of it happened Lonely old me Whoops-a-daisy I thought I was happy

I can try to stop it, all I like Hands down I've lost this fight But I just can't hide the truth Thought I was strong, enough for you I guess I'm going down You say it's not supposed to be Tell me not to waste my time This was never up to me But if it

Goodbye to love Thought it was better with a broken heart But it's so damn hard to restart I tried to stitch it up a billion times But there's no happy end now for the story of you and I It's a quarter to one And we're screaming at the top of our lungs

I said I'm mad (I'm burnin' up) I had a friend one time, at least I thought he was my friend For he came to me, said "I ain't got no place to go" I said "take it easy man, you can come home to my house, I'll get you a pillow where you can rest your head"

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes Turn and face the strange Ch-ch-changes Time may change me Still don't know what I was waitin' for And my time was runnin' wild A million dead end streets and Every time I thought I'd got it made

We're doing a sequel I thought it was the end We can do it all again Bawk bawk bawk begawk But no my friends this is when We get to do it all again Until the credits roll Es furn dur shurn do husy du We're back a popular demand

No, it's not a false alarm I'm dancing in flames And now I'm burning in your arms Endless fire in my heart I heard sirens in my head From the first time that we met Thought it was a false alarm Yeah, we started as a spark

I'm sorry for changing. Believe me, it's easier just to pretend. I'm sorry it had to be this way. But, I won't apologize for who I am. You had me to get her. And here, I thought it was me. I was changin', arrangin' my life to fit your lies. It's all said
