[Intro]
(One, two, three, four)
[Verse 1]
The scratches of a dark night, the rashes of foresight
And I wanted you, ooh-hoo-ooh
[Chorus 1]
The weight of my freezin'
I had come to you
The face I was given
I have no similarities to
[Post-Chorus 1]
The spaces in the law look
Like the faces in a word book
I get by, I get by
[Verse 2]
The matches of opportunities, the last thing I've never seen
And I scream to you, ooh-hoo-ooh
[Chorus 2]
The pain I was needin'
Was sort of true
The one aim I was clearin'
Was the walls that grew
[Post-Chorus 2]
And the crazes I overlooked
The leans into the cook
And I did, and I did
[Chorus 3]
And I was screamin' bloody murder
And I was one with pain
And I stopped by the roadside
'Cause it's from where I came
[Bridge]
Oh my god, but it's so far away
It would seem accidents have gone straight to you
[Post-Chorus 3]
And you've changed your point of view
And the places you're goin' to
I get crowded, I got crowded
[Pre-Chorus 4]
And I'm so glad that you're mine
It twists up the fabric of time
And I'm useless, yes I'm useless
[Chorus 4]
And the faces are bodies
And your hands are feet
Let me roll around
In things I can't believe
[Outro]
But I tried, yes I tried
And I tried, you know I tried
