lyrics

Cold words on my mind, evaporating sun,
I go to sleep twisted up and numb.
The last warm, amber bottled drained,
I'm too naked to be ashamed.

Life sucks me in and spits me out.
I still don't know what it's all about.
My head's full of noise, my marrow screams.
If you cut me open, I bleed dreams.

Something deep inside wants to run,
wants to run into unconditional arms.

Sideways sun pouring down on me;
flat broke in the land of the free.
Working all my days, wondering what it's worth,
wandering on this dead-end earth.

Long golden legs sail down the street.
The heart in my throat skips a beat.
She's a steady wind beneath her dress,
a breeze that leaves my mind a mess.

Something deep inside wants to run,
wants to run into unconditional arms.

Thrust in the thick of it, I don't know what to say.
There's so much beauty and pain.

Racing blindly toward better days,
time's relentless march a drunken rage.
Searching for something I don't understand,
outrageous arrows of a hidden hand.

Sinking into a lullaby,
beneath the star-studded sky.
Half-lit moon shining, primal and profound;
lost with the girl I've found.

Something deep inside makes me run,
makes me run into unconditional arms.
