It’s december again
I had hoped for revelation
I see you, stop your waving
The windows of your car are frozen
We’ll walk, it’s not far
Keep your smokes in your pocket, you are
Hoping for sleep or the morning
I had changed you
This silence must surrender
Come, let your words split the sky
The things you failed to see
The things I wanted you to be
There’s madness in your system
And system in your madness
You hope for sleep or the morning
I had saved you
Missing zeal is a question
Failing hope a confession
I watch the crowds, I loathe to stay
I liked the things you used to say
You love the rain
You feel and thrive
We keep the sorrow in our lives

It’s not the way you never seem to jest
It’s the way you dance around the fire
You keep talking ‘bout the past
But the streets are just streets
We move in circles again
I’m leaving
You feel there’s something wrong
You look left and right
This is too easy
Drawbacks prosper just like problems
But Babe just take ‘em inside
It’s raining and those rugs are new
I must have changed last night ‘cause
The things around seem to make sense
You are poised on the inside
I told you that it’s alright
And I told you not to listen to what I say
On your shoulders are the towers of Rome
The oracle of Delphi is below your naval
And I gave it all to you
But I’m going off the rails
And guess who sold me the ticket in the first place?
Don’t ask directions
Do I look like some fucking buff to you?
You keep your truths and I the vagueness
This day is much too endless
There’s nothing in the world like this
Why is love so hard to bear?
Why is it that I don’t care?
What is this we have chosen?
Why are my accounts all frozen?
It’s not the way you never seem to jest
It’s the way you gaze into the fire
You keep dreaming ‘bout the past
Where the streets were just streets
We move in circles again
I’m waiting

Could you leave just for a moment?
There’s something right amiss
The leaves are green and
Sidewalks are a good advisor
Could you step out for a second?
This fucking mess is chasing me
I would return that smile
Again and again and again
You waste your time
You lie awake
You churn your life for all mistakes
And I guess that’s what being alone is for
Do you hear the whistle blowing?
After sunset that was
I cannot make it in time
I can never make it in time
I had thought of picking daisies
On roads you dare not walk
You are careless and that’s why
It drags you down and down and down
You wake the seeds
You tremble
And you fall forever
And there you are
The stems point the way
To your home
Honeybee, you start a fire
Honeybee, you start a fire
Honeybee, you start a fire
Honeybee, you start a fire
Honeybee, you start a fire
Honeybee, you start a fire
Honeybee, you start a fire
Honeybee, you start a fire
