It was just a (past?) diploma
So I went into a coma
Never thinking I'd be satisfied
All the days of sun and water
And the evenings with my vodka
Wondering what I'd do if I had tried
I will walk
With you by my side
You can be the conductor
Through the twisted vines
We can talk
Open wide
We can dance on the headstone
Of the twisted vines
A school of fear and loathing
So I thought about my clothing
And I felt like a retarded child
I was ripe for abolition
Of the whole star-studded system
Maybe willing to do something wild
I will walk
With you by my side
You can be the conductor
Through the twisted vines
We can talk
Open wide
We can dance on the headstone
Of the twisted vines
BRIDGE:
Lowlife drama
Backstage charmer
(She's breaking away)
I'm still breaking away
Fallen angels
Know the angles
(She's breaking away)
I'm still breaking away
I'm still frozen in the spotlight
'Cause I know it shouldn't feel right
It was so exciting in the dark
I will walk
With you by my side
You can be the conductor
Through the twisted vines
We can talk
Open wide
We can dance on the headstone
Of the twisted vines
I will walk
With you by my side
You can be the conductor
Through the twisted vines
We can talk
Open wide
We can dance on the headstone
Of the twisted vines
