I�ve come a long way since you thought you knew me well
How could you know me when I didn�t know myself?
A stranger in my own skin
A little boy just waiting
Can�t grow up fast enough, can�t get out fast enough
And sometimes when I crack, the animals are back
Sometimes when I speak there�s someone alse inside of me
And every now and then
The kid comes back, this precious friend, he won�t let go
I told you so
How can I let you in?
How to describe this feeling?
I�ve left all words behind
I�ve thrown them in the river
The storm is gathering, I feel it in my skin
I saw the moon go black, I felt my heart collapse
And sometimes when I crack, the animals are back again
Sometimes when I crash, I�m seeing colors not existing
And all the time I hear this little kid�s voice
There ain�t no choice, he won�t let go
I told you so
I wanted to stop the tape
I wanted to freeze the frame
I saw it on TV, the bed�s already made for me
So heaven, dress me in a white sheet, lay me in a rusty bed
Heaven take the ceiling off me
Help me put the pieces back
