I can’t quite stand this maddened beauty
It hurts my head and it hurts my mind
I laugh until I’m blind
I laugh to keep from crying
I laugh and then I’ll die
But play on, leave me out of it
Fill up this place, if I could drown you out
Then I would drown you out
If I could keep you out
Then I would keep you out
Everything plays back
Everything repeats
Everything I lack
Is everything you need
Going down and down and down
Past everything for the last time
Been thinking how I can keep things moving
But it’s been too long and my memories just sink
I can’t hold on to everything
But I’m so hard to convince
To wave and watch them sink
I won’t go back, I’m not listening
I’ve been attacked by a pretty thing
And I’m afraid to sing
Afraid of what you’ll think
Afraid of when the know comes crushing in
