Lyrics
Stranger with candy in a dangerous ten dollar vest
Call Colorado and send them my best
The sugar tree is grinding out the army
I'm the pretty young thing with nothing better to do
Don't take that the wrong way
I really...
You can take a piece of me
Measuring the silence
You can take a piece of me
I'm the pretty young thing breaking out the silence
You didn't have to pull away when I was pulling in
Then pull me back when I was on the verge of caving in
A sliver
Stray
Bombs away
The FBI
The CIA
Tell me if this gets too strange
You can take a piece of me
Measuring the silence
You can take a piece of me
I'm the pretty young thing breaking out the silence
I've taken too much but I bet I'll remember your name
If you put it down on a fin
If you wait right here you'll never see me again
I'm a whisper
A figment completely
I don't care
It's no big deal man
Come here
Maybe I'll call or write sometime
Colorado
Maybe I'll call or write sometime
Measuring the silence
This is where you want to be
I'm the pretty young thing breaking out the silence
You can take a piece of me before I'm gone
I'm sirens
I'm the pretty young thing
You better take a piece of me
I've taken too much but I bet I'll remember your name
If you put it down on a fin
If you wait right here you'll never see me again
I'm a whisper
A figment completely
I don't care
It's no big deal man
