lyrics

Too tall
That's what you said about the window
That's what you said about the vase
I bought for your artificial roses
It's small time business
You don't want to be concerned with
The small time his kiss
Showers you with care but still imposes

I stare
Staring back into the splitting clouds
That let me see the sun
It's like a floating orange eye
I glare
Sometimes reflected
A hundred thousand times
From a lake
No bigger than an eye

But it's high tide
The moon is passing over head
This is my side
I've only been where i was led
And when i die
Don't let them know that i am dead
Let me hide
Make sure everybody knows what i have said

Falling, falling like a flute
That's been tossed out a window
It hums a pretty note

This is what?
Did you say this was a honeymoon?
Well i would've prepared for this
If I had known
Now you and I sit facing each other
Cross our legs and (mystery line)
On a bed that's shaped like a heart

But it's high tide
The moon is passing over head
This is my side
I've only been where i was led
And when i die
Don't let them know that i am dead
Let me hide
Make sure everybody knows what i have said
