lyrics

I need to I need to I need to move on with my life
Stumbling to stall on glass knees balanced on a thin knife
Over head another jet screams by on invisible lines of light
coursing through the sky

Solitude throws me and blows me into a silver dreams bare arms
she says, I know you, without speaking
I know you've done a little harm
Now with comfott this close I am haunted by the hammer of the
devil closing his hammer on ignorant ghosts

I gotta move back to San Francisco
that city is cracked and manic like me
I've lived in a real house for too many years
I gotta get back in a dysfunctional relationship
let the sudden highs break my fall
Turn to me in the morning and say
You make me feel visciously beautifully insane

I set myself up for this
Secure glass except for the wind and earthquakes
now I open my eyes for the final round with fear
I know my heart will be broken but I will be healed

I gotta move back to San Francisco
that city is cracked and manic like me
I've lived in a real house for too many years
I gotta get back in a dysfunctional relationship
let the sudden highs break my fall
Turn to me in the morning and say
You make me feel visciously beautifully insane
