Elliott Smith - Stickman lyrics

I sit here shooting blanks Out of emptiness Ain't nothing really want to k** Maybe your time I guess Sit and spin the world and its flipside And I listen backwards for meanings 'Cause i'm a stickman I live with one dimension dead Try not to think too many moves ahead I draw from memory The stillest kind of life Slide after slide You know pain's the sharpest knife Project what's done so everyone can see To me it's just a reversal And I'm a stickman Frames they go one by one If I sped it up You'd see I'm on the run From some monster off screen k**ing sons Lonely makes me blue Envy turns me green Hate might paint me red If I load my magazine But not just now when it's easy to stay clean When no one sees where you're bleeding And I'm a stickman Stickman
