7/21/2002 alternate lyrics
Oh, look at us, crowded all in plastic smile
open, let all of the troubles will right, I am
no, imagine this, if all the colors melt away
eating the heart of old skeleton boy again
Cover your love up with pride and disdain
they'll get it strong but a wall of your refrain
and as you hide your goodness deeper down inside
sure you won't even know it's there until you die
And opened all, the door swung out and invited
we all drank heavily there, and every pill we put was invited
oh, and smoke filled up our lungs, oh, the light danced as if the wildest
and every dream became real there, I tell you, that night was the wildest
Oh, then I woke the next day, pounding away
I thought I found the love, but I just got hazed
oh, emotions fall, all the dreams that were real
once again bounced daintily across this terrible field
And open all again, that night was writhing
as if I came through that tunnel, caught the bird once again and came lighting
the wall, oh, I swear, tonight I was bulletproof as a great island
long before rain beat down on the heads of those on fire
I blame it on the rain
for the line and all
I know I know I won't leave
as it falls, rained all the violence of
a tongue in power was haunting
