(Another night, another dream I won't remember. What a nightmare. What a nightmare.)
Fuck it!
Well
I may never be gold again, but the world is my oyster so I'll settle for the pearls
And I may never see love again, but twice was enough--I spent it all on the wrong girls.
Dear mom: I'll call when I land, but don't wait up for me
And I'll return with the world in my hands--I pray that's enough for me.
(I pray that's enough for me!)
I'd never lay a hand on something that wasn't mine
But I've stolen now. But I'm stealing now.
And I'd never vandalize a home I'd live in later
But I'm homeless now;
But I'm homeless now.
So take me home tonight. I'm a silver-tongued serpent.
Let me show you what it's like tarnish a heart of gold when you know you don't deserve it.
And all the riches in the world can come and go when you're fixated on chasing a feeling
Oh, and it's all a high you never quite reach--all I want to know is if it's worth it
So this is what we throw away, this is every good thing we've ever had as it goes away
So don't be afraid--whatever you do, dont be afraid.
I'd never steal... I'd never steal. Ha!
But I've stolen now.
And I'd never vandalize a home...
I'd never break a home...
But I'm homeless now.
