fifty years have ridden off into the sunset
|
|
I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of
the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way
I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while
I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

On the road to safe, I kind of tripped along the way
It just seemed like a nasty hassle
The path was greener on the one less traveled
That's where I'd remain
People so high, they think I can't hear the whispers
And I can see it falling off their face
They're trying to shoot down my plane of grace
It seems like it's already hard enough
But the paint on me is beginning to dry
And it's not what I wanted to be
The weight on me is holding on to a weary angel
So tell me what it is about me
Where did everybody go without me
So I like to fantasize and watch the sun rise
Like it's a big surprise
Life moved and I stopped to taste it
I drank it up until it left me wasted
But my rains have bled a softer red
Oh, you should see the world inside my head
You can shackle me away
And try to wrap around my dreamer
I feel better when I paint my days
With purple seas and left-out greys
Strange is just a different point of view
But the paint on me is starting to dry
And it's not what I wanted to be
The weight on me is holding on to a weary angel
So tell me what it is about me
Where did everybody go without me
So I like to fantasize and watch the sun rise
Like it's a big surprise
Life moved and I stopped to taste it
I drank it up until it left me wasted
But my rains have bled a softer red
Oh, you should see the world inside my head
I feel better when I paint my days
With purple seas and left-out greys
Strange is just a different point of view
But the paint on me, it's beginning to dry
And it's not what I want it to be
So wait on me, wait on me ...
Tell me what it is about me
Where did everybody go without me
So I like to fantasize and watch the sun rise
Like it's a big surprise
Life moved and I stopped to taste it
I drank it up until it left me wasted
But my rains have bled a softer red
Oh, you should see the world inside my head
-David
