step out the front door like a ghost / into the fog where no one notices / the contrast of white on white / and in between the moon and you / angels get a better view / of the crumbling difference between wrong and right / I walk in the air between the rain / through myself and back again / where? I don't know / Maria says shes dying / through the door I hear her crying / why? I don't know / round here we always stand up straight / round here something radiates / well Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand / she said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis / she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land / it's like she's walking on a wire in the circus / she parks her car outside of my house / and takes her clothes off / she says she's close to understanding Jesus / and she knows she's more than just a little misunderstood / she has trouble acting normal when she's nervous / round here we're carving out our names / round here we all look the same / round here we talk just like lions / but we sacrifice like lambs / round here she's slipping through my hands / ohhh! / sleeping children better run like the wind / out of the lightning dream / mama's little baby better get herself in / out of the lightning / she says "it's only in my head." / she says "shh. I know, it's only in my head." / she said "did you think that you were dreaming?" / I said "no." / "did you think that you were dreaming?" / I said "no." / "did you think that you were dreaming?" / I said "sometimes i don't know." / there's a girl on the car out in the parking lot / and she says "come on, ya know, come on just take a shot" / and she says "can't you see me? / can't you see me? / can't you see my walls are tumbling down? / can't you see my walls are crumbling down? / can't you see my sun stop spinning around? / can't you see the sky turn black and brown? / can't you see the moon is flashing round? / can't you see me? / can't you see me? / can't you see me?" / "No!" /I said there's a girl on the car out in the parking lot / and she says "man why don't you take a shot? / can't you see my walls are crumbling?" / then she looks up at the building / she says she's thinking of jumping / she says she's tired of life / she must be tired of something / round here she's always on my mind / round here, hey man, we got lots of time / round here we're never sent to bed early / and nobody makes us wait / round here we stay up very, very, very, very late / I can't see nothing...nothing round here / so will you catch me if I'm falling? / will you catch me if I'm falling? / will you catch me cause I'm falling down on you / man, I said I'm under the gun round here / man, I said I'm under the gun round here / and I can't see nothing / nothing round here
