It's second nature now,
the third time around trying to be cured.
Second nature comes naturally.
I did double takes,
third time's a charm to be fourth rate.
I plead the fifth
to what went on.
I stood too close,
hoping it would make us closer,
but that's a bad theory.
And I forgot
the difference
between friend and foe (it's tough I know)--
flip a coin between friend or enemy.
But all those
circumstances?
Fuck em all, just take my chances!
It ain't enough to sit and wonder.
It ain't enough to say
I care.
No wonder I'm going belly under
from all the world's tear and wear.
Pins and needles got in my feet
(sat too long in my seat)--
at least I know i still got my senses.
But it makes it hard to hustle
with blood
and bone inbetween muscle...
that's all I know about anatomy.
Blood and bone can look so gruesome on their own--
skin
covers what we dont' wanna see.
But a heard beating on it's own,
won't beat long all alone!
It ain't enough
to sit and wonder.
It ain't enough to say I care.
No wonder I'm going belly under
from all the world's tear and
wear.
In Times Square,
I feel like i'm not even there.
(the ghost under the marquis).
The marquis' read
the latest,the greatest,
the highest-paidest--
household names ain't what they cracked up to be.
From the sky,
they can't make out the words on the signs.
That's okay, the angels don't wanna know.
Heaven sent and heaven
goes--
even they can't decide i suppose
It ain't enough to sit and wonder.
It ain't enough to say I care.
No wonder I'm going belly under
from all the world's tear and wear.
From all the world's tear and wear
from
all the world's tear and wear
yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah
