Step out the front door like a ghost
Into the fog where no one notices
The contrast of white on white
And in between the moon and you
The angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
Well I walk in the air between the rain
Through myself and back again
Where? I don't know
And Maria says she's dying
Through the door, I hear her crying
Why? I don't know
Round here we always stand up straight
Round here something radiates
Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks just like Elvis
Itโs not me
And she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she's walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside of my house and
Takes all her clothes off
Says she's close to understanding Jesus
Yeah but she knows she's more than just a little you know, misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal
Well I have trouble acting normal when she's nervous
Round here we are carving
We are carving
We are carving out our names
Round here yeah I know - we all look the same
Round here we talk just like lions
Yeah but we sacrifice just like lambs
Round here she's slipping though my hands
Oh, Sleeping children better run like the wind
Out of the lightning dream
Mama's little baby better get herself in
Out of the lightning
She says, "It's only in my head." Yeah
She says, "Shut up, I know, I know this is only in my head."
She said, "Did you think that you were dreaming?"
I said "no"
She said "Did you think that you were dreaming?"
I said "no"
She said "Did you think that you were dreaming?"
I said, "Sometimes I donโt know..."
Because, I was out on the radio
Just starting to change
Somewhere out in America
It's just starting to rain
Could you tell me one thing you remember about me?
Yeah 'cause I was out on the radio
Just starting to change
Somewhere out in America
It was starting to rain
Could you just tell me
One thing
You will remember about me?
Tell me one thing
Tell me one thing
Tell me one thing
That you will remember about me
Sssshhhh
'Cause thereโs a girl on the car out in the parking lot
And she says: "Man, c'mon, c'mon just take a shot"
She says "Canโt you see me?"
She says "Canโt you see me?"
She says "Canโt you see my walls are tumbling down?"
She said "Canโt you see my walls crumbling down?
And canโt you see my sunโs stopped spinning around?
And canโt you see that sky turn black and brown?
And canโt you see that moon go flashing round?
And canโt you see me?
And canโt you see me?
And canโt you see me?
No
Thereโs a girl on the car in the parking lot
Says "Man you should try to take a shot
Canโt you see me walls are crumbling?"
And she looks up at the building
She says "Hey Iโm thinking of jumping"
She says, "Iโm sick and tired of life"
Well everybodyโs sick and tired of something!
But round here she is always on my mind
Round here
Hey man, look at me โcause I got a lotta a lotta time
Round here we're never sent to bed early
Hey man, nobody makes us wait
Round here we stay up very very very very late
And I said, that I was out on the radio
Just starting to change
Somewhere out in America
It is starting to rain
Could you tell me one thing you will remember
About me?
'Cause I was out on the radio
Just starting to change
Somewhere out in America
It's starting to rain
Could you tell me one thing
You will remember about me?
'Cause I was out on the radio
Just starting to change
Somewhere out in America
It's starting to rain
can you tell me one thing
You remember about me?
