She's been traveling the sidewalks for hours Stopping as every moment of the truth wanders past Window shopping for religion or something harder Than the coins in her pocket
She is way too pretty for prime time New York She gets the business every time she takes a walk Amid the shark-smile porno scenes But they can't ever touch her - their disappearing queen
She is... Nowhere and everywhere Nowhere and everywhere Nowhere and everywhere at the same time
She's as shady as cheap sunglasses But as perfect as this October Monday passes To a draggin'-your-soul-around-town rhythm Always in such a hurry, but never too fast Playing chicken with delivery boys and tag with the subways Searchin' alleys for proper company She's jumping in and out of cracks And she's got everything that you lack Well she entered unnoticed You will feel it when she leaves
She is... Nowhere and everywhere Nowhere and everywhere Nowhere and everywhere at the same time
Ahhhh..
We belong...in gutters and glittering lobbies We belong...to a street lamp flickering out We belong...to absolutely nothing
Getting out of a taxi the other day My heart fell out of my backpack and into a puddle And so my chest was empty but it felt okay I just fished out the pieces and walked away into...
Nowhere and everywhere Nowhere and everywhere Nowhere and everywhere at the same time
aahhh..
We are Nowhere and everywhere You're feeling close but nothing's there We are nowhere and everywhere at the same time
Heeyyyy...
Nowhere and everywhere Nowhere and everywhere Nowhere and everywhere.....

He's a genius...from the northwest He rode into town with the circus The bearded lady and the iron man She's a dreamer...from the suburbs He nearly fell off his horse when he heard her He said
He's breathes the air lightly Since skipping parole And he dials the phone quietly But she put him on hold There are good sons and bad seeds She thinks he's the latter But it no longer matters what she'll say He'll be driving all night anyway
Over backroads he'll ride Then he cuts the headlights And he watches their lives From the outside
And they can't let him in So he's driving again As he's wishful thinking On the outside
Mmmmmmm...
Oh say can you see by the dawns early light Playing on the T.V. I guess he's in for the night He fell asleep waiting for his sister to call All the motels and roadside bars He wants home but it only gets farther
Over backroads he'll ride Then he cuts the headlights And he watches their lives From the outside
And they can't let him in So he's driving again As he's wishful thinking On the outside
Oohhh...
Yes, it's killing them knowing he's out there, somewhere Reminding that they could be too
oohhh...
Over backroads he'll ride Then he cuts the headlights And he watches their lives On the outside
And they can't let him in Cause they know where he's been So he's left there thinking On the outside On the outside On the outside...
On the coldest night of the year You start to rethink hell Cause all you hear is a cruel wind moan Fire engine bells See, this family had no heat So they built a bonfire in their living room they Thought they could keep it a secret But those flames caught on and soon the whole building went up I see one fireman turn to another and say
Take notes and take cover in the sweat shirt you hide under If they ask you, don't answer, otherwise they'll kick your ass after There's a lipstick war at the drugstore But you gotta get by there somehow You're a smart girl in a dangerous world If you just figure out what the hell to do now
Oh I know you could have everything If you ignore the voices tearing you apart Go girl go, you could have everything If you can keep from drowning in your liquid heart
You're hard outside, soft inside These few years won't be a smooth ride Mom feels it, dad knows it They're worried sick and they show it Tequila, she's loaded, these rebel guns have exploded
And you can't define the line you walk Between enemies and friends It's hard to believe in yourself And that someday this all will end
Oh I know you could have everything If you ignore the voices tearing you apart Go girl go, you could have everything If you can keep from drowning in your liquid heart Girl, If you can keep from drowning in your liquid heart
Ohhhhh...
You want their love but you want your space And you're not sure which you need So Cari dear, when it's not clear You can always come walk with me
Oh I know you could have everything If you ignore the voices tearing you apart Go girl go, you could have everything If you can keep from drowning in your liquid heart
Oh I know you could have everything If you ignore the voices tearing you apart Go girl go, you could have everything If you can keep from drowning in your liquid heart
Drawn by your colors I could scale the garden wall Past the Don't Enter signs and trying not to fall (and break my neck) I should pick roses but I can't do as I am told And you look so pretty in the light I want a bunch to hold Watch each step I take so carefully 'Cause one false move and you're screamin' Don't tread on me, don't tread on me, no Mr. Marigold, I want your hand to hold But the farmer's daughter's chasing me away Laying my head down in a patch of orange and green The smell in the air is strong, still I can't make myself leave You're my temptation 'cause those petals look so sweet I thought you were gentle but you're not And you're poisonous to eat Caught green-handed trying to sneak you out With yellow on my chin and a stem in my mouth Then I whispered too loudly Mr. Marigold, I want your hand to hold But the farmer's daughter's chasing me away and I want my soul again, I want my heart to mend But Mr. Marigold won't let me stay woohoowoohoo... I Watch each step I take so carefully, carefully 'Cause one false move and you're screamin' Don't tread on me, don't tread on me, no Mr. Marigold I want your hand to hold But the farmer's daughter's chasing me away I want my soul again, I want my heart to mend But Mr. Marigold, Mr. Marigold Oh Mr. Marigold, I want your hand to hold But the farmer's daughter's chasing me away I want my soul again I want my heart to mend But Mr. Marigold, Mr. Marigold...
From here I still get vertigo The spinning colors down below I'm passing quickly so Look up, I'm a comet, here in my orbit And bless my eyes, from this high It's beautiful
But down on earth they've sent the code My time is up, I've got to go If there's one thing I know You can't be too happy They'll shoot you down Look away from your T.V. This show's over now
Goodbye (I'm falling) Big sky (I'm fading) Hello ground zero (so fast I don't know what to do) Goodbye (hold steady) Big sky (and waiting) I'll be landing soon
And on the crash site flowers pile The lights that line the runway mile I'll lose my shit in style In one minute longer I'm blessing you (I need some time to clear my mind and to memorize the view)
Then finally I'll hear the scream Metal on metal like my dreams The asphalt steaming with The smell of burnt rubber, pity me Leave me up here forever, peacefully...
Goodbye (I'm falling) Big sky (I'm fading) Hello ground zero (so fast I don't know what to do) Goodbye (hold steady) Big sky (and waiting) I'll be landing soon Goodbye... Goodbye... Goodbye... It's over now...
I've been discovered My trip is over I'm not really one of you Nothing is mine but the cracks in the skyline I guess it's time to tell the truth
Outside I'm normal, but inside I'm green translucent gel I may seem nice enough but really I am ornery as hell Can't you tell?
Stop looking at me sideways I'm just trying to keep my friends Because I still don't have answers... I'm just an everyday alien Stop kicking at my head to see what's underneath my skin Because I still breath, I still need you I'm just an everyday alien Dying to be human again
He's not my brother And she's not my mother She's some nice lady trying to help out It might cause you to wonder How many others You'll find wandering about
So many reasons to wanna stay but still I am alone You called me out, so I'll have to drag my alien butt home Guess I'll go
Stop looking at me sideways I'm just trying to keep my friends Because I still don't have answers... I'm just an everyday alien Stop kicking at my head to see what's underneath my skin Because I still breath, I still need you I'm just an everyday alien Dying to be human again
I've been so lost...so far gone It's almost funny I held out this long You'll tell everyone the truth about me And they'll see I'm wrong I don't belong...
Stop kicking at my head to see what's underneath my skin Because I still breath, I still need you I'm just an everyday alien Dying to be human again...
On the corner of St. Marks', I saw an angel Playing a guitar and begging for change Oooh-I guess I shouldn't have believed my eyes But when he wiggled his wings, I melted like ice cream He began to sing (no very well) He said
They wanted me, to be the queen But my mood went south And I'm stuck on the couch in fat jeans And the couch sucks me down through the floor And the floor sucks me down through the earth And I'm covered and buried before My heart had a chance to stop working
Hey-can't hear me 'til I shout Hey-come dig me out
It's raining in bed And I'm soaking wet I need someone to fix this hole in my head Before my brains get out and the rain gets in All that could be, should be, would have been If I'd only done better watching weather and wishful thinking
And the bed sucks me down through the floor And the floor sucks me down through the earth And I'm covered and buried before My heart had a chance to stop workin'
Hey-it's heavy underground Hey-come dig me out!
Honesty's a bitch that no one wants to listen to Hear how you're doin' when you're down Change the subject quickly, don't look don't see I'm not looking too pretty right now It's hard to look pretty underground
Hey, Can't hear me til I shout... Hey, Come dig me out, Come dig me out
Hey, Can't hear me underground... Hey, Come dig me out, Come dig me out
Hey, Can't hear me til I shout Hey, Come dig me out, Come dig me out...aaahh!
I find her standing in a doctor's uniform Trying her best to save him Oh, but his breathing is much slower than before Honey it's time to let it end Tomorrow comes another hundred thousand times Practicing perfect dying But he can't be saved, he likes the pain too much to be denied And I don't hear a soul denying
And now the little boy who cried just got his way But nobody wants to play
It's a shame that no one cried when William died, I think it's funny He won't give a damn about not loving you or anybody The sad frozen eyes-are watching William die And he's dying all the time
He wanders through the crowd alone and out of place Muttering something about being numb And he wears his skin so tight, a smile would crack his face As his heart beats purple blood
And here we stand above the open ground As they lower his body down
It's a shame that no one cried when William died. I think it's funny He won't give a damn about not loving you or anybody The sad frozen eyes-are watching William die Ooohhh...And he's dying all the time
Ooohhh..And they lower his body down... It's a shame that no one cried when William died, I think it's funny He won't give a damn about not loving you or anybody
It's a shame that no one cried when William died. I think it's funny He won't give a damn about not loving you or anybody The sad frozen eyes-watching William die And he's dying all the time...
