Some of Us Don't Want to be Saved

He was heartless from 10 to 8
He was ready to initiate
All the beautiful things all the prayers and tamborines
Prism mornings, city-fallen leaves
All I want's the impossible
The invisible
The sweet mythical
Those that don't miss the kingdoms
And don't miss the kings
They don't want the spotlight or the wedding rings
But I will always look for you
I will always look after you
Hear the sad farewell of the alcholic clown
Took a while for him to go down
Disentegrated airways, with eyes half closed
Heart half closed, having no hand to hold
He says, if I get another chance I would like to learn to dance
I would dance across the graves of all the flunkeys on the stage
I would dance across the room, I would pirouette with you
I would light my fires, for you, love, only you
If I had the courage
If I had another chance
But some of us don't want to be saved
Some of us don't want to be saved
Ever again
Ever again
I'm the lucky harpoon in the whale
The last lonely leaf holding on to the tree
the chipped brick that holds up the building that holds the world together
The writing on the letter
That held his heart forever
The athiest glimpse of heaven
The athiest glimpse of heaven
And some of us don't want to be saved
Some of us don't want to be saved
Ever again
Ever again
Goodbye to the modern girls that you've become
You're not alone, oh my darling one
It's the small things that keep us alive
Coded souvenirs, left of the dial
We wreck ourselves on the insides out
We fall, laugh, cry, we shout it out
But some of us don't want to be saved
Some of us don't want to be saved
Some of us don't want to be saved
Some of us don't want to be saved
Ever again
Ever again
Some of us don't want to be saved
