Turn the key
start the flame
fog, heat, motion
In the concrete ocean.
Is there a fog outside the glass?
Or a fog inside my mind?
I watch the clock, I ll watch the sky
but still I won t know why.
Now this highway is twisting
like a barber s pole
where you bled me out
but I didn t have a doubt.
Everything you did, everything you said
had its rhyme and reason.

[finger picking]
I wish I stopped but once
to shine the silver platter
I used to show my excuses for you.
I wonder if I would see
my face in the reflection
or the mask that had become my skin?
(Instrumental break)
[strumming]
But now I see clearly
clear as glass:
the only thing keeping the wind
from blowing you out of my head.
I took the key out of my back
you won t wind me up again
I won t sing for you anymore
I won t make excuses for you anymore.
I ll put on the same clothes
that I wore yesterday.
Because tears dry, and lies die.
But the sun always rises in the morning.
Coda:
repeat until faded out
