Space Between My Ears

Have you ever taken pen in hand, recorded your thoughts
Crawlin' round the paper with a life of their own,
Sometimes you scare yourself
So you read it again, and then you throw it away
Have you ever had something really important to say
But you couldn't get the words, tumbling round in your head,
To find the proper place
And so you tell your friends, forget it any way
I'm gonna rip up all of my songs
I'm gonna rip up all of my songs
I'm gonna rip up all of my songs
But I guess I'll have to start all over again
Have you ever needed someone else to help you find yourself
Have you ever needed total release,
Sometimes you scare your friends
So you drink a six-pack, and then you throw it away
We can imagine perfection, but like our dreams,
It doesn't always come true
But one thing is certain, better alone together, than by ourselves
And so I'll pick myself up, so I can throw it away
I'm gonna rip up all of my songs
I'm gonna rip up all of my songs
I'm gonna rip up all of my songs
But I guess I'll have to start all over again
