Past Lives - Skull Lender lyrics

rate me

I just got back from 20 years of shopping <br />

the only thing I bought was a cage<br />

to lock up my heart inside a cynical skull that sings, "everything gets worse with age!"<br />

<br />

how how tell me how<br />

I want to start all over again.<br />

I want to tell you something you don't know<br />

but everything I know has been told.<br />

I can loose my concentration.<br />

I can't seem to loose control.<br />

how how I don't know how<br />

I want to start all over again.<br />

I don't need ancient wisdom, dull and old.<br />

I don't need future visions, promissory notes.<br />

Give me something here and now that I can use, like the bang bang baby of a beat of a drum and a skull, brand new.<br />

<br />

Come on and take me to the bank, I've gotta beg for a loan. A three year lease with the option to buy a brand new skull. Take me to the bank, I've gotta beg for a loan. Trade all the memories I hold in my head for a brand new skull.<br />

<br />

<br />

I love to hear the pigeons purr.<br />

I can't hear the mocking birds sing.<br />

Give me one two three more years<br />

to try to forget everything.<br />

how how I don't need you how<br />

I want to start all over again.

<br />
