Jack's Mannequin - Diane, the Skyscraper lyrics

I'm living in a waiting room on the tenth floor Of a New York City skyscraper Got the paperwork filled out my friend Can you tell me how this story ends? My best girl caught a taxi cab to an uptown bar to meet my band But I don't have the energy so she plugs my machines back in And the late night T.V. talks to me about God but God why can't I sleep? As she plugs my machines back in But my machines back in now don't cha' Diane (Diane) I'd by lying if I said this was my plan (Diane) We are all in this together (Diane) See I'm trying but I just don't understand (Diane) Well I can't predict the weather past the storm (The weather past the storm) And there's mornings where I wake up quick And my head it dreams and my stomach's sick alone To slowly pull the sun from bed Below the fifty-ninth street bridge And I feel like I'm a battle tank But there's peace for every pound of strength I'm waiting for the enemy While she plugs my machines back in (Back in) Diane (Diane) I'd be lying if I said this was my plan (Diane) We are all in this together (Diane) See I'm trying but I just don't understand (Diane) Well I can't predict the weather past the storm (The weather past the storm) (The weather past the storm) (The weather past the storm) (The weather past the storm) (The weather past the storm) (The weather past the storm) I'm living in a waiting room on the tenth floor Of a New York City skyscraper Got the paperwork filled out my friend
