Adapt

The sentences were traps,
Some words were not attached,
Once you got to listening,
The meaning would collapse.
Things will change,
I'll adapt.
Knee swole up by the side of the road,
I wanna close my eyes, gonna lie in a hole,
Dying in the streets for performance art,
While all the foreigners and the tourists watch.
Come on man you remember me,
I had a hit song last century,
I guess that it wasn't really meant to be,
Don't lecure me 'bout destiny.
A million little tiny shards,
Glow beneath the shining stars,
They don't really know me,
But they hold me in such high regard.
The sentences were traps,
Some words were not attached,
Once you got to listening,
The meaning would collapse.
Things will change,
I'll adapt.
Finish my drink and I left the bar,
Jumped the curb, wrecked the car,
Oh my friend what a mess you are,
Well I guess that goes in my repetoire.
Come on, it's only been a year or so,
Maybe it was more like years ago,
I don't want to get all spiritual,
Well I do believe in miracles.
A million little tiny shards,
Glow beneath the shining stars,
They don't really know me,
But they hold me in such high regard.
I feel no connection,
To your heroes and henchmen,
All the things I'm sorry for,
Fifty, sixty, probably more.
A million little tiny shards,
Glow beneath the shining stars,
They don't really know me,
But they hold me in such high regard.
The sentences were traps,
Some words were not attached,
Once you got to listening,
The meaning would collapse.
Things will change,
I'll adapt.
Now I don't never ever leave on time,
I'll be waiting out front by the neon sign.
Come on baby, it'll be alright,
Waiting out front by the neon sign.
Nobody ever ever leaves on time,
Waiting out front by the neon sign.
Come on baby, it'll be alright,
Waiting out front by the neon sign.
Tell me where I know you from,
Another little girl got old too young.
Baby where I know you from?
You're just another little girl who got old too young.
