August Everywhere

Lockjaw standing on his own lowball landing
Come on mistah reprimanding
Why you so understanding?
Oh she lights the wind on fire in her way
No apologies, no luck tonight
Filtered eyes look on from every side
I wish this could be your big night, sandy
Watch out for lightning
Sandy waiting on her landing
She was always so demanding
Her voice was so commanding
Say, you're looking like a wipeout
You do this every night out
You wait, i'm thinking
I've got it! you're sinking
And every day it seems there's a blackout on your city block
Charming once, but twice, i'm gone
And i feel like i was there all alone
You're so white, you think yo'ure nothing like me, are you
You wanted new conditions, base it all on intuition
Play it just lke you're buddha, nothing hurts you `less it needs to
Naked like a baby
Don't look like you hate it

Your room is always warmer
The animals they love me too
Our lives, are they so precious? you should know
I read it and i liked it
I couldn't tell a single soul
I'm sorry that i'm blinded
You should know something
All my sunny sounds
They leave this world for good
Everybody else i keep right here
I saw your pretty pictures
Your face could never tell a lie
No matter
You will always need to feel something
There's no one else to blame
A year is such a waste of time
I'll make another pretty sound
It's nothing

Everybody's telling me their which way to go
I can't even call you back until i know
How i can feel so thin and still be able to show
Everyone my everything and still cry, "gold!"
I don't need me
You don't need you
We need someone soon
Never will there be another summer this slow
Never will we have to play confusion to show
Then all we ever needed was to touch just once
Everyone'll tell you they already knew
I'll say it again your instinct
Is everything that i need
Low sound around me showing
You were inside me glowing
Believe everything that you read
And i'll be the girl that you need
I'm laughing inside, it's insane
`cause nobody hears me chant your name

On this earth i will stand on rocks and sand
Waiting for sympathy and day's end
To winter, spring and summer
I swear there is no other you
This is for you
One life fades to the next
It's with me you're left
Tired eyes, please believe
That i'm with you
To shiela, surely altered
Your train wreck's racing for we two
Is this what we do?
On this, our night, there will be
Secrets left unknown
Can you be strong?

You called me out, and just this once
I'll keep within the circle that's drawn
Now i see you must be right
The candle's out but now we must try
I swear i'm alright
No pills at night, no depserate afternoons
Don't save me anymore
I'll stand here till i die
Believe me one more time
I know you've seen the other side
The go-getters, they just look so bright
Check my eyes, i look alright, you must believe
For once it's true
I've never felt so sure before
I swear i'm alright
No pills at night, no desperate afternoons
Don't save me anymore
I'll stand here till i die
There's nowhere you can hide
Believe me one more time

I want to ride with the sunroof down
I want to ride till the sun goes down
I want to drive to the secret hideout
Because i'm the right kind of girl for you
We can forget what we learned at school
There is no right for persistent fools
And if we keep on driving backwards
You'll see there's noo good and/or bad, my friend
Down this golden road
There is something that i must unload
I'm not a schoolgirl
I am just a siamese cat with wings
And i hope that you understand
That i once was a boy or a man
And it's too late to change the course of history
But i would like to see you again
Down this golden road
There is something that i must unload
I'm not a schoolgirl
I am just a siamese cat with wings
And i say things i don't mean
Like there's still a shred of truth to be seen
I'm feeling so high, but i'll take you home if you think that i
Said too much, much too soon
But i'd really like to see you again
