about

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

These white lines have got me going crazy,

As each one takes me a place that I’ve been before,

85 to 285 to 75 and I’m sick of these numbers.

Between 316 and 350 it’s a bunch of shit,

That means nothing to me

So why do I even have a key

To doors that never close for me?

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

I’ve lived through these days and lives,

A couple of times and it’s all the same,

I’m ready to live, to be admired,

I’m tired of these quarter-fed games

So I’ll make new homes away from old ones,

I’ll take my time and I’ll make it complete,

And the only one with a copy of keys,

Could be you if you want it to be.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

Please be warned that in these times,

The water’s colder, the carbon’s older,

Soon we’re left with nickels and dimes,

Worthless metals with no real meaning.

I like thinking that you’re thinking

About me and what I’m thinking,

But lately my mind’s been perplexed by,

All the things you think of it.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

You fell through the cracks but I 

Want to bring you back, want to take you home,

You claim that I lack the tact but
I
 made you fall, yes I made you fall.
Now I’m back, and I’ve had time,
I’ve seen the signs in a different light.

From black to white, well I’m alive,

And in the sun my pale skin hides.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

Please be warned that in these times,

The water’s colder, the carbon’s older,

Soon we’re left with nickels and dimes,

Worthless metals with no real meaning.

I like thinking that you’re thinking

About me and what I’m thinking,

But lately my mind’s been perplexed by,

All the things you think of it.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
