We could steal away
But it's not like we're really gonin' somewhere
Yeah we could steal away
But it's not gonna happen

Yeah we could steal away
Ah we could leave today
We could run away

So why don't you leave through the door
You've felt this way before
You've felt this way
-it's good
Hey,hey,hey,hey,hey

I've got this bloodshot adult commitment
I get my kicks when I get old
Bloodshot adult commitment
For now I do as I've been told
Bloodshot adult commitment
Old enough to pay,
Young enough to kick around, ah to kick around
Bloodshot adult commitment
Piss my guts into a hole in the ground
Ah, ah, ah, ah, yeah
Bloodshot adult commitment
Lends no hand not until you beg, please, please man
Bloodshot adult commitment
Piss running down the inside of your leg
Now you know I'm far from satisfied
Bloodshot adult commitment
Goggle eyed man says: I think you should have this,
You say: I don't need this, no I don't need this, oh
Bloodshot adult commitment
Slips you a note, you say: I can't read this
Ah, I can't read this

Bloodshot adult commitment
Now you know I'm far from satisfied
Some day, some day, so long
Yeah we could steal away
Ah, let them wait today
Ah we could steal away

Yeah, we could steal away
We could leave today
Ah we could run away
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I've got this bloodshot adult commitment
Bloodshot adult commitment
Bloodshot adult commitment
Bloodshot adult commitment
Now you know I'm far from satisfied
You know I'm far from satisfied
You know I'm far from satisfied
You know I'm far from satisfied
Bloodshot adult commitment
Bloodshot, bloodshot, bloodshot
We could leave, come along
But you know, don't you, don't you, alright

(Alright)
Sliding up slowly, now moving in for the kick down
Well, you kicked me around, but you never really got to my bone
Caught you alone, but you'll never stand where I stand
It's not like every green of sand is a piece of your stone
Oh, push up kid, push up

This is gonna be hard on you, none the less it's true
This has nothing to do with you
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready to go anywhere
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready to go anywhere
Oh yeah, oh
Yeah
Yeah

Sliding up slowly, now moving in for the kick down
Now criticize what you clearly do not understand
God, you're alone, but you clearly will never win
Well the people should step down and into the hole that you're in
We stand
Push over this
Push up

This is gonna be hard on you, none the less it's true
This has nothing to do with you
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready to go anywhere
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready to go anywhere
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready to go anywhere
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready
Now I'm ready to go anywhere
Oh, yeah, oh
Yeah

I saw the white
I saw the green
I saw the tainted black
Stains of ink and wax

Black bird and a green hand held
Held inside my head
And inside my head
A vast astronomy of birds
Look at the wall
The paint has already started to come off
It's all for nothing I guess

Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
Yeah
Side

I fall into the wheel of the moon
With a circle of sand and bad dreams
See, everything piles up now
And everything's exactly what it seems

I feel tempted to call a friend
And say: "Hey, that's not it at all!"
"You see, I comprehend everything now,
And this experiment has blown up in my face like a snowball"

Now, which side are you on?
Which, which side
Are you, are you on?

Once again I cross the narrow field
I came to the road but the path was gone
Not there
I spanned around, I caught the sun
I [...], but then it turned blue
It's just a stain, don't mean a thing
It's just a stain, it's just blood

I should've lied
I should've lied
I could've lied

Which side are you on?
Which, which side
Are you on?

If you come back the house will never be the same again
No
What?

So am I
Good or bad?
The way that things did turn out
I did only make you sad

And we cried and we cried
On the phone
Oh, but in my mind
You were never that all alone

Oh, you were majesty
Your roads were heavy
And your longing was cutting through bone

So am I
Am I good or bad?
I could only awake your anger
I could only make you mad

Oh was that how you showed me
That you were still so young and bold
Anyway, those fights did drive me
And I was dying of thirst and I wasn't growing old

Oh, you were majesty
Your roads were heavy
And your roads were very cold

Oh oh oh majesty

But in my mind
I could still climb inside your bed
And I could be victorious
Still the only man
To pass through the glorious arch of your head

Oh, you were majesty
Your roads were heavy
And your cheeks were very red

Oh you were majesty
And it's like I said
That spirit is now dead

Oh oh oh majesty
Oh oh majesty

Did you get this far
Did you get this far just to hurt me?
Did you get this far
To realise that you dont you don't
You don't deserve me

(Chorus)
I know you
In of this and out of that
In seven seconds flat

Need you to move me
Need not point it out
Need not say it's exactly that

Exactly where was the line?
It can't be that far behind
I don't even remember stepping over it

If I sold out along the way
Then it's really hard to say
And anyway, I've got nothing to show for it

(Chorus)

Whatever you do
You take it to the point where it's me, not you
And you really did not attack

Whatever you do you gotta cut it out quick
If this is some kinda trick I've got no way to see through it, no

Whatever you do you gotta cut it out quick
If this is some kinda trick I've got no way to see through it, no

(Chorus)

Got a new rule
Need not spell it out
Need not say it's excactly that

There's no use to complain
Or start it off again
There's no sign of weakness in me
Do I compel you like you compel me?
And nothing stays the same
And no one said it would
I would not think of such things if I could
If I could help myself
If I could
Oh

So put your warm little hands where I can see them
Put those hands on my face
Tell me you love me
And no one else
Or close those little hands
Now they're fists
Now they're little fists
Oh

Punch a hole in me with those fists
If you ever wanted to punch a hole in me
And find out what's in me
There's really nothing in me
Oh

And nothing stays the same
And nothing ever happens to you that will happen to you again
Or is this the way it was?
Was it this same room, this same fight, this same scene?
With us dancing on the kitchen floor
And the wind climbing in through the open window
Oh

I used to hear distant cracks out in the city night
I could swear someone was being shot down
Oh, now we hear that all the time

So do you like where we're headed?
Does it make sense in your eyes?
Do you miss me, baby, when I fall asleep?
Do you reach out for my arm?
Do you find it's too far away?
Do you?

Now tell me I'm handsome
I will tell you we are really not old at all
There's no use to complain

Still you and no one else

So put your warm little hands where I can see them
Put those hands on my face
Now if you get any out of this
Then that's the thing that makes me sleep all day
And I'll explain my love for you
On another day
Oh

The night is on and on
Your head roll away
I catch it when it falls
And keep it beneath my heart
So what have we become
More than a skin and bone
Oh, what could beat this love
It's so parallel
This is when we awake
This is where we don't ache
I see the sun burn it's never quite as close
As the only one and I
I can hardly wait
Again this sweet, sweet song
Oh, give me what you take
And give me all that sleazy
Give me what never ends
So what have we become
More than a skin and bones
And when do we come down
I don't care anymore
This is when we awake
This is where we don't ache
I see the sun burn it's never quite as close
As the only one and I, I can hardly wait
I see the sun burn it's never quite as close
As the only one and I can hardly wait
