As I get closer, my dreams get farther

I climb that ladder, but you kick it over

Thirsty for water, you give me vinegar

When I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker

I dug a hole

Everybody is tired and poor and sick of trying

If you see me on the corner

Will you stop or will you splash me

Take a look at what we've become

Nothing more

A devil in a midnight mass

Who preyed behind stained glass

A memory of Sunday class

Resurrected

Constant quick fixes, they don't make no sense

Hop on bandwagons, you make me sick

Don't you tell me, what

I stumble through the wreckage, rusted from the rain

There's nothing left to salvage, no one left to blame

Among the broken mirrors,

You spurn my natural emotions

You make me feel like dirt

And I'm hurt

And if I start

They found an empty bottle on her windowsill

The day her mother lost her sleeping pills

She was sick and tired of being invisible

Hard to see in color when you're

Like a target drawn across my chest

She's a bullet in Russian Roulette

You said you'd never

Well I tripped, I fell down naked

Well I scratched my knees, they bled

Sew up my eyes, need no more

In our game there is no score

Forgive

What you see is what you get (don't you know)

Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker

Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)

Hard to get a grip with all these
