packing lyrics

***
hey!, my eyes are shooting sparks. hey!, your old man should know- if you see a shadow, there's something there.

but restlessness has seized me now, it's true. i could watch the dreams flicker in your eyes, lying here asleep on a sunbeam.  (i wonder if you realize you fascinate me so)

Gentlemen, he said, I don't need your organization, I've shined your shoes, I've moved your mountains and marked your cards. But Eden is burning, either brace yourself for elimination or else your hearts must have the courage for the changing of the guards.

Your sorry eyes; they cut through bone
They make it hard to leave you alone
Leave you here wearing your wounds
Waving your guns at somebody new
Baby you're a lost cause
There's too many people you used to know
They see you coming they see you go
They know your secrets and you know theirs
This town is crazy; nobody cares
(I'm tired of fighting, fighting for a lost cause)

floating upon this surface for the birds, the birds, the birds. (you want me? fucking well come and find me)

shyness is nice, and shyness can stop you from doing all the things in life you'd like to.

coyness is nice, and coyness can stop you from saying all the things in life you'd like to.

ask me, ask me, ask me

ask me, ask me, ask me oh.

I'll wait, I'll never give in
Our love has got the power
Too many lovers in one lifetime
Ain't good for you
You treat me like a vision in the night
Someone there to stand behind you
When your world ain't working right
I ain't no vision, I'm the girl
who loves you inside and out
Backwards and forwards with my heart hanging out
I love no other way
What are we gonna do if we lose that fire?

fire eye'd boy give em all the slip, if you're gonna go you better make it quick. fire eye'd boy give em all the slip

feel good lost
feel good lost
feel good lost
