Broke into the screened in porch
Now I'm crawling through the dog door
I may let you see me on my knees
But you'll never see me on all fours
Drooling on the tile
I'm a starfish on the kitchen floor
Catch my breath to breathe your name
I am just the fool you took me for, uh-huh
...
You gave me your hands
'Cause you didn't know what to do with them
And I showed you the way, even though I'd never been
Where did we go right? I think about it all the time
If I had paid closer attention
Maybe I could take us back to there and then
But you can't feel it for the first time, a second time
You can't feel it for the first time, a second time
I can't go back to who I was before I met you
I can't undo what I've done, I wouldn't want to
I wouldn't want to, I wouldn't want to
Sneaking out of the house
I must be out of my mind
I'm running out of excuses
We're running out of time
You say the love will come and go
We'll learn to ride the ebb and flow
You'll always leave before the light
Come back same time and place the next night
And how will I know
If history repeats itself?
How will I know
When it's gonna come back around?
How will I know?
Has my faced changed, baby?
How will I know?
I'll stay ready for you to take me, take me, take me
Take me
yes i quoted almost the whole song. its so fucking good

Sweetest Kerina, give me a sign
Still haven't seen you
Been calling you all the time
Calling you all the time
Caught in the turning, losing the light
But I've learned to believe you
When you say it'll be just fine
You say it'll be just fine
Let me know reasons why we change
Why our bodies are more than just breath and veins
Yeah, I wonder what remains
Past the forest and borders and pocket change
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Wind doesn't blow, baby, just 'cause I want it to
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
You don't want me, honey, just 'cause I wanted you
Caught in the turning, losing my mind
Well, I lose what I'm learning
When I'm calling you all the time
But you say it'll be just fine
Let me know reasons why we change
Why our bodies are more than just breath and veins
Yeah, I wonder what remains
Past the forest and borders and pocket change
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Wind doesn't blow, baby, just 'cause I want it to
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
You don't want me, honey, just 'cause I wanted you

And I'm caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue
I'm caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue
And I'm conquered in a car seat
Not a thing that I can do
I may go crazy
Before that mansion on the hill
I may go crazy
Before that mansion on the hill
But my heart keeps beating faster
And my feet can't keep still
And all the little girls rhyme something
On way back home from school
And all the little girls rhyme something
On the way back home from school
And the leaves fall one by one
And call the autumn time a fool
Yeah, my t-tongue gets tied
Every, every, every time I try to speak
My tongue gets tied
Every time I try to speak
And my inside shakes just like a leaf on a tree
I think I'll go walking by the railroad with my cherry, cherry wine
I believe I'll go walking by the railroad with my cherry, cherry wine
If I pass the rumbling station where the lonesome engine drivers pine
Poster's Note: This is where the narrator suddenly begins to feel optimistic
Wait a minute, yonder come my lady
Rainbow ribbons in her hair
Yonder come my lady
Rainbow ribbons in her hair
Six white horses and a carriage
She's returning from the fair
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Well, I'm caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue
Oh yes, I am
I'm caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue, oh
And I'm conquered in a car seat
And I'm looking straight at you
Way up on, way up on
Way up on, way up on, way up on
Way up on, way up on, way up on
Way up on, way up on, way up on
Way up on
To the avenue of trees
Keep walking down
In the wind and the rain, darling
You keep walking down when the sun shone through the trees
Nobody, no, no, no, no, nobody stops me from loving you baby
So young and bold, 14 year old
Poster's Note: ...
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Ooh, yeah

But I remember you, you had a body
You had hands and arms and legs and et cetera
Did I fail? Did I fall?
(In the morning when I wake up, are you mine?)
Did I waste my time, waste my time on a broken heart?
(Take the trash out like a bad dream, are you gone?)
Or is this the start of the great silence?
(From the old house, the fiercest heart spoke, are you mine?)
Is this the start of every day?
(Christmas tree's dead, you know how time flies, are you gone?)
...
So descend into clichΓ©
If the music has forsaken you
Roll the stone over the grave
I never liked that one anyways
Or stare into the face
Of whatever it is that's facing you
And if the levee breaks
You'll find out what it is that's replacing you
And when the mirror breaks
I wouldn't miss it for the world
Call it blackstar
Call it painstar
The same thing happens when you touch it
Did they tell you what happens when you touch it?
Did they tell you what happens when you touch it?
Did they tell you
Did they tell me
What happened to you?
...
For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror;
Then we shall see face to face.
Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known
And now these two remain
