Carrying your tune
Like something that could bruise you
A catch you'd just as soon cut loose
Always at arm's length
Something that your friend said
Sticking in your head again
Holding all your notes
Like a sling around a broke bone
A wind that you can slowly blow
Carrying that scent
Of kissing off your lipstick
And the glitter of your whiskered skin
But the note that you sung
Finally pulled down that sun
And left a hole in the sky
Now there's no light to find you by
But there's a road in my mind
Lying on the floor
Like hanging on that fourth chord
Just leaves you wanting more and more
Flailing all your limbs
For the fourth, the fifth, the sixth
It's hard to follow, isn't it?
But the chord that you strum
Finally pulled down that sun
And left a hole in the sky
Now there's no light to find you by
Feel you slowly unwind
From the spools of my life
But there's a road in my mind
There's a road in my mind
