Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eye _____s,
I can barely define the shape of this moment in time.
And far from flying high in clear blue skie _____s,
I'm spiralling down to the hole in the ground where I hid e.
If you negotiate the min efield in the drive,
And beat the dogs and cheat the cold el ectronic eyes,
And if you ma ke it past the shot guns in the hall,
Dial the combination, open the priesthole, and if I'm in I'll tell you...
There's a kid who had a big hallucinati on,
Making love to girls in magazine s.
He w onders if you're sleeping with your new f ound faith.
Could anybody love him,
Or is it just a cr azy dre a_____m ? (Aah, Aa h, A ah, Aah)
A nd if I show you my dark si de,
Will you still hol d me tonight ?
And if I open my h eart to you,
Show you my weak si de,
What would you do ?
Would you sell your story to Rolling Ston e ?
Would you take the children away... and le ave me alone ?
And smile in reassu rance as you whi sper down the phone,
Would you send me packing,
Or would you take me ho me ?

Thought I oughta bare my naked fee lings.
T hought I oughta tear the curtain d own.
I he ld the blade in trembling hands,
Prepared to make it, but...
Just then the phone rang,
I never had the nerve to make the final cu t.
