Something's gonna happen but I don't know whenI got a notebook full of pages and a Uniball penI'm gonna write down my mistakes before they happen againAnd if everyone is bullshit why can't we pretendEveryday there's new beginnings but there's no new endsSo there's a game that I invented it's called disappearYou can play it sober but when you're fucked up it's easierYou find yourself a lover and you count to tenYou close your eyes and if they're gone before you open themThen there can't be no hard feelings yeah you'll still be friendsAnd there's a history that I don't want to talk aboutYeah I done some dirty things don't want to say out loudAnd everyone has secrets they could live withoutPay attention boy and soon you'll have me figured outThere was a big mistake inside that factory that built us allWith a heart so big and a body so smallSo if I start to freak you out you know it's not my faultYou can blame it on the way the human race evolvedBecause the wanton heart is stronger than the self controlI spoke to an old lover in a dream last nightI said I can still see your picture in my wallet(where the picture stuck to the plastic) if I hold it rightSongtexteI made some bad decisions and want you to knowI walked a valley in a desert where no seed would growI felt a thundercloud in August drop an inch of snowAnd I met another woman with a mouth like youBut her hair was golden blonde and her eyes were blueShe would pierce them into me the way that you used toBut I was immune yeah they passed right throughI know that I'm a handful I complain a lotIn the winter when it's cold and the summer's hotBecause half of me is happy baby half of me is notNow I'm staring up to heaven with my fingers crossedSome people call it faith I like to call it love, love, loveYou tell me that I'm lucky 'cause I know what I wantCount how many kids our age who are completely lostBut I'd rather just be happy for the things I've gotInvest my time in other people grow my people stockAnd I'll be serious if serious if serious is what you wantI saw a thousand men with shovels in the subway lineSaid there's no diamonds in those tunnelsWhat'd you hope to findThen I saw the miner's jewel reflect into my eyeI felt the miner's jewel reflect from deep insideI knew that I'd be looking for that stone until the day I die...
