I miss fights over the remote Interrupted by the home phone That was covered in crumbs and goo 'Cause you grabbed it after eating food I miss the flatter on your flushed cheeks When I walked in on you singing And you would have a new tantrum Now I miss your tantrums I hope you hide out on the top floor And think of me when you get bored While they’ve been teaching you to hate me I hope you only learned to love me more I hope that you’ll still dream After they’ve clipped both your wings If we threw parties like we threw tantrums We’d all be wasted in a big white mansion The valley people’ve kept you quiet and distracted So grab your things and escape through the canyon Escape through the canyon I bet you’ve never put a hole in their walls Never been so scared of footfalls On the other side of your door After the valley girl claimed you swore SongtexteI bet heaven feels godless And you’ve undiagnosed lovesick 'Cause they don’t allow your tantrums And you miss those tantrums My sky’s one hour younger Clouds and planes are moving through it But I’m still lookin’ at the same moon And I’m still thinkin’ all about you And how you got so abrasive when we started to grow up And our veins are gettin’ faithless but they’re still carrying love But I know I’ll meet you down the road I hope you hide out on the top floor And think of me when you get bored While they’ve been teaching you to hate me I hope you only learned to love me more I hope that you’ll still dream After they’ve clipped both your wings If we threw parties like we threw tantrums We’d all be wasted in a big white mansion The valley people’ve kept you quiet and distracted So grab your things and escape through the canyon You ain’t got time for dreams You ain’t got time to take a stand You ain’t got time for me You ain’t got time for them You ain’t got time to keep anyone close Cause you’re just bones I want you home But you can’t fly here with those broken wings And I can hear your silenced valley screams If we threw parties like we threw tantrums We’d all be wasted in a big white mansion The valley people’ve kept you quiet and distracted So grab your things and escape through the canyon Escape through the canyon Escape through the canyon Aus Songtexte Mania
