Scars For Entertainment - Toothpick

I thought we kissed under the blue moon

How can there be six walls in a square room

Hide my eyes through the glare in the window

I saw you making angels in the pink snow

I reached out and touched clouds it was so real

Now the sheets on my bed are made of cold steel

Why is it me that’s not thinking in a straight line

So scared I only sleep in the daytime

And even then I can only close one eye

I hear you walk a little slower as you go by

With no shoelaces no fork and no knife

I guess they don’t trust me with my own life

Friends of yours are friends of mine

Now let’s get together and have a good time

Sayin' it’s alright the sun still shines

The earth still spins and you’re still mine

With your hands on your chest you take a deep breath

Still afloat but you know you have to jump ship

See I remember the time when we were all friends

Now I can’t see over the picket fence

If I look straight up I see the yellow sky

All this medicine makes me a mellow guy

And sometimes I can feel just enough to cry

And wonder why blue tears come from brown eyes

'Cause when your just wakin' up I know my days done

But in the end we all came from the same sun

And I’m calm but they’re afraid to let me go free

I’d rather live one day than die slowly

I’m a collection of scars for entertainment

Deep cuts and I wonder where the pain went

Mom and Dad said its all for my own good

Counting cards and I memorized the phone book

I sent a message in a bottle but it came back

I used to waste time in a pink Cadillac

With faded photographs stapled to the dashboard

I hang on your lips 'til the very last word
