Current mood:i fucking hate root canals
Category: Music
I got my suitcase packed for the rain
It contains everything and nothing
And no one to blame

The sky is falling
But I can't complain
My yesterdays
Were better than today

The mirror's cracked and there's not enough glue
To repair it and make it anew
I used to see you but now I just see through
The ceiling over the bed we used to view

Bits and pieces of my mind
Roll over the rocks
At the beach in the summertime
I think I had it
But it slipped down the slope
Of a distant place and time
Always yours and never mine

Thinking about moving west
Hide out in the Presidio
Or maybe fly east
To Paris

Once ran through Amsterdam
But not to by pot
To catch my plane to come see you
In 6 where the bombs didn't drop
Cause we gave you away back in the day

The mirror's cracked and there's not enough glue
To repair it and make it anew
I used to see you but now I just see through
The ceiling over the bed we used to view

Bits and pieces of my mind
Roll over the rocks
At the beach in the summertime
I think I had it
But it slipped down the slope
Of a distant place and time
Always yours and never mine

Jimmy was on his way out
And Ronnie funded the war machines
That paid for my Smurfs guitar
Back when I was three
And after these years now
Tell me in God's name how
I made it this far
Or not out of my backyard

Bits and pieces of my mind
Roll over the rocks
At the beach in the summertime
I think I had it
But it slipped down the slope
Of a distant place and time
Always yours and never mine
