Bright Eyes
Bright Eyes - Trees Get Wheeled Away lyrics
Your rating:
Anchor men spike their blood Wear a mask of mud, cucumbers cut to fit their eyes So no one would know how tired they've grown Of talking and telling their lies While the tv's change stations Scroll messages, victims and christains both drinking blood And they'll pray for the destrucion Of all hatred, more often just those with hate for us Cause it hurts when you discover ones worse and ones better To suffer or cause others to And you can live by your concious Now guilt is a concept you're no longer subscribing to There's a virgin in my bed And she's taking off her dress And I'm not sure what I am goin' do There's a song stuck in my head And i can't help singing it Oh how i hope my singin pleases you Cause this is not who i've become but who you make me into We've got no health insurance No cellular service No disease they can cure But we need more money to burn So each person must learn the dollar amount they are worth And those pills make me dizzy, forgetting my body I watch as it walks away And i just keep drinking the poisen And smoking the cartons A pack and a half a day And so when time comes to claim me My friends and my family will gather around my grave And they'll believe that they knew me And love me and miss me And all call me by my name So immagine what you want and hold onto that thought Cause that's as close as it will ever come And believe you're were you're are Keep acting out the part But at the end of the day The trees all get wheeled away And you'll be standing alone in a blank, blank space So believe you're who you are And stay in character But at the end of the play the audience walks away And I'll be shivering cold on a well lit stage
