The Dismemberment Plan - Gyroscope lyrics

She's wearing too much lipstick tonight A little black dress a little too tight Tries to make small talk but it drips with spice She knows that he's coming, it's really all right Nobody here could know how she feels Not getting drunk and she hates wearing heels Tries to stand but the room seems to bend and reel Her friends all keep asking why can't she just deal If she spins fast enough then maybe the broken pieces of her heart will stay together But any gyroscope can spin forever, yeah If she spins fast enough then maybe the broken pieces of her heart will stay together But any gyroscope can spin forever, yeah He says it's over, it's such a release Finally happened and he's making his peace The reminders don't bother him in the least The Jekyll and Hyde sh** will finally cease His eyes on fire and his hands kind of shake Like his voice is ready to break You kind of wonder how long this boy's been awake Or just how much less sense one person can make If he spins fast enough then maybe the broken pieces of his heart will stay together But any gyroscope can spin forever, yeah If he spins fast enough then maybe the broken pieces of his heart will stay together But any gyroscope can spin forever, yeah No, I don't know. Happiness is such hard work and harder every day And it can k** you, but no one wants to be that tacky about it If you spin fast enough then maybe the broken pieces of your heart will stay together But something I see lately makes me doubt it
