Lyrics

I don't believe you,
You didn't do that
Took those words from a thousand responses
Gave me sugar then knocked me out flat

Tumbling out faster than fire that hit me with five kinds of heat
Tumbling out from your mouth past rows of fine pearly teeth
Easy as diamonds to keep but you passed them along anyway
Curses and words turning circles forming this wreath.

Ididn't hear you,
You never said no,
But you did and you blistered the skin of illusion
That was holdong my body and soul

Flesh fell away and the bones were expose and the marrow was out
Out from an ivory cave to the cold ligth of day
Sometimes the choice to be gentle with truth is the one you should pick
Not having me on my knees making me pray.

You thought you'd kill me
I didn't go down
But I paused with surprise
And I opened my eyes
and I'd grown up when I came around.

Out of a coma I came with a fire and guts of my own,
Well bruised but wiser, eyes open, my nose on the air
Moving away from the scene like a hunter with some other prey
Glad to be getting away and the hell out of there

You'll never seeme,
i'm in the wind,
You won't hear my name and you won't get my number
Good luck my friend.
