lyrics

I replace the calender year after year,
the gloss on the pages stay perfect and clear.
I never remember to pencil it in - it's as if it never was.

The voice in my head, well it's wearing me down.
Always reminding me time's running out
If I close up the curtains and block out the sounds
I will not miss a beat.

I'll live on the stage and sleep when I'm dead,
make love to the girls that eat lies they are fed
once they get to know me, they're gone like the day
so I'll keep myself concealed.

So if you know a way (I know that one exists)
A way to let it go (I need a clean white page)
Don't keep it to yourself (Come on let's share it round)
Sit me down the truth must come out now.

The method of madness is new and contrived,
traditions and formulas always survive,
the people still buy it, the rules haven't changed
so the price remains the same.

A lover once told me she needed to leave,
could no longer stand being chained next to me.
Four seasons later a marriage and child,
for a minute I was confused.

So we count down the days 'till our favorite events,
promotions and parties we pay off our debts.
The day you were born loses significance
the older that you are.

So if you know a way (I know that one exists)
A way to let it go (I need a clean white page)
Don't keep it to yourself (Come on let's share it round)
Take me home I should not be alone,
Take me home I can not be alone
Take me home I should not be, I can not be, I will not be alone.
