I don't want to be a rusty suit of armor
Or a tumbled out forgotten castle in your mind
I just want to be a twisted willow
So I can leave your shallow thinking far behind
I can feel the darkness in your shadow
And the melting of ice behind your troubled eyes
And the discoloration of all the words you're saying
As you're hunted without mercy by your lies
I've flown so high I'll never return
And I've been to the bottom of the dregs of your troubled soul
And I've basked in the sun of your revelations
But I guess you and I we have different goals
So go and slay your dragons in blind amusement
And topple imagination with a song
And the moon it plays little mind games
So you'll wonder where all the stars have gone
Listen to me
You have spoken to me about nothing
And you've shown me fantasies in a crystal ball
And you've promised me the world for my asking
Don't you know that to me it means nothing at all?
Because I know you'd leave me a burnt out matchbox of forgotten roses
Inside a get well card I had to address by myself
But that's not what I need from another stranger
So I guess I'd better do things without your help
So I guess I'd better do things without your help
So I guess I'd better do things without your help
