nothing but a mudpie wrapped up inside with a
pretty bow
nothing but a castle built on
top of stone but quicksand
and inside these
cardboard walls and saran wrap windows
lies
a rusty pot of fools gold that you got for your
life
are you tired of being wrapped up on
loyalty
and you taught yourself to act
like royalty
until the day you became
prey
as you tripped over your incumbent
you wash your hair in the Luca oil
then
you wrap your head with tin foil
prance
around in your bathroom
pretending you're a
king
just spin me home
sinking faster
now
well you can follow your rainbows and
i'll follow the sun now
wherever he goes
it's not too far to run
so i will follow
the sun
follow the sun
nothing but a
calender hanging on your wall
that's 23
years old
nothing but a for sale sign
on a house that's already sold
trying
to chew through that chocolate covered barbed
wire
because they are among the beautiful
filth
waiting for you on the other side
just spin me home
sinking faster now
(repeat chorus)
clever lives end up
rusty and forgotten
brilliant minds end up
with alzheimers
what i thought was so
deep
ended up so hollow
and what i
thought had meaning
ended up so
shallow(repeat chorus 2x)
