I knew a girl She knocked at my door Head in the clouds Feet off the floor I knew a girl She brought me life Back when the girl was mine Da-da-da-da Da-da, da-da-da Da-da-da Da-da, da-da-da-da
She knocks and knocks (ah) I knew a girl She brought me life Back when the girl was mine
It feels like a big waste of time I don't seem to mind Why?
But life keeps swallowing That's why I learned to cook (Houston) I'm a vacuum-sealed body bag In a crafted metabolic way Salutations to the old world Hundred oysters for a single pearl Yeah, well life is dot dot duh This is Purgatory Silverstar Only me, myself, and radio Deep space, dead weight Body-breaking loneliness
It's the end So bye-bye blue In my dreams I'm back on you
I took you for granted All that you do Coming up empty-handed In a patchwork of truth So, for the rest of my life, I'll pay my dues I'll pay my dues I'll pay my dues
I took you for granted All that you do Comin' up empty handed In a patchwork of truth So for the rest of my life, I'll pay my dues I'll pay my dues I'll pay my dues
