Hold in your last breath and stare
Assure me your metronome's left arm stick shift
Is stuck on the right words in your ear
Did you hear me loud and clear? In sight and out of mind?
Cautiously avoiding the cracks not to disturb your steadied arm straight line
The facts before a climb... a plan before a crime
Tired in the days that pa**ed away
Sporadically arranged across the floor when you've got it made
Dear Mariah, the world's not big enough
For the both of us when we live in the same town, that's wrong
Fight on fire (fight on fire), burn my hands till I
Got nothing left to count my numbers on that's wrong, what's right?
Your wise a** comments could cheer you up
The emotional disturbance: relax, deep breathe, sit back
From the space in which you stand, here and in demand
Don't touch a fresh wound that bleeds
All over your carpets the stains, the story book remains
And the page that states you've lied
Accept and then reply, acknowledge the other guy
Tired in the days that pa**ed away
Sporadically arranged across the floor when you've got it made
Dear Mariah, the world's not big enough
For the both of us when we live in the same town, that's wrong
Fight on fire (fight on fire), burn my hands till I
Got nothing left to count my numbers on
Don't change your mind when all's been won
Your words in time, with the loss that you'd let them go
Don't let them fall if your grip's not strong
In time decide... with the words that you'd let them go
Don't let them fall if your grip's not strong
Dear Mariah, come sleep in your own...
Well dear Mariah, come sleep in your own...
Well dear Mariah, come sleep in your own...
Well dear Mariah, come sleep in your own {bed}
When eye meets eye become
We'll lie here alone locked the children in the floor
When eye meets eye become
We'll lie here alone locked the children in the floor
When eye meets eye (your dreams can't last forever)
We'll lie here alone locked the children in the floor, in the floor
Father figure wraps his face down
He'll be coming home to you
(Who sat me down here?)
Your dreams can't last forever
Locked the children in the floor
(Who sat me down here?)
When eye meets eye (your dreams can't last forever)
We'll lie here alone locked the children in the floor
