By Sugar

I
Received this gift from you
Pleasantly surprised, I never thought you'd realize
that maybe
I
Have taken this from you
If I was deserving, who am I to disagree
How can I refuse this, even if I don't deserve it

And now,
I give this gift to you
Could have got you anything, but this will have to
do
It's how
I give this gift to you
It doesn't seem like much, but it's the best that I
could do
I'm giving everything away before I go for good

And once you give the gift away
There's nothing you can do about it
Nothing that you do or say
Can change the way I feel about it
Try to look inside of me
To find the gift that I am giving
Glad you had a chance to see
The gift that I'm delivering
Your rating:
Everyone loves the company man
With his company book in his hand
The songs inside the company book
Do not deserve a look
They are rules in and of themselves

Everyone knows the company man
He lets etiquette play his every hand
Maybe 20 years ago
He didn't show
His love of rules in and of themselves

In the epilogue the company man
Takes his company life with his company hands
In his revelation he decrees
Extinction of faceless robots like himself
Spawned from the company book
Your rating:
Got a set of wings that I couldn't use
Bout them in a store on the avenue
Didn't mean to spend all the cash I had
The second that I saw them, I wanted them bad

When I got home and I tried them on
I noticed that the wingspan was way too long
Couldn't take them back, there was no return
I should have gotten more, I was feeling burned

Gee angel, won't you take these back?
Gee angel, gee angel, I need some slack
There's nothing in this world that I'd rather do
Than buy a wet of wings and fly away with you

Climbed up the mountain, observed the view
But angel wouldn't say what I had to do
Then angel flew away and left me standing there
I knew I couldn't fly, but I didn't care
Your rating:
Don't you know I need a place to stay
Only fifteen bucks a day
I didn't want to end up here
But now I guess I need to stay

River red, runs like lead
And the smell of kerosene in my head
Stuck in here in this shithole
Reading foreign magazines instead

"But senor, I only have ten dollars,
Can't you give me a room for the night?"
We argue about currency and then
He says I can stay for the night

In this Panama City motel
I am out on the freeway again

A woman approaches in Barcelona
Walking down the Diagonalia
Spaghetti concrete overpasses
I keep grasping for something familiar
Your rating:
I can't help you anymore
You can't hurt me anymore
Don't care how bad I feel
Still holding on the wheel
I've felt like this before
Been sleeping on the floor
You say you've had enough
Don't try to wake me up

I can't help you anymore
You can't hurt me anymore
Don't care if you're upset
I'm trying to forget
I feel like walking out
Don't want to talk it out
You say your life's a mess
I need to get some rest

I've had enough of feeling slighted
I've had enough to last a lifetime
I've had enough, and I've decided
I can't help you anymore
You can't hurt me anymore
Your rating:
This is where the line is
That I've drawn across the sand
And this is where my heart aches
Unaware and in my hand

This is where it's gone
This is where the heartache's going on
I can go it alone

I can't believe what you're saying
I've got to leave for you're sailing on and on
I can't repeat what it's all about is wrong
I can't believe what you're saying

This is how the time goes
In an ordinary town
And this is how it all ends up
When you run the whole thing down

This is how it's gone
This is how it's already gone and I know
You keep going along
Your rating:
Heart holds mouth to words
Said it's gone beyond the line this time
Eyes twitch close
Numb the lights turned out I'm out

The cold is in my bones
Said it's gone beyond the line this time
Shake a little off the deep end
Tell me when it's over now

I hate you
Explode and make up
Threw it in the yard
Burned it in an ashtray
I don't need you
Even though it's all made up
Put it in your box and put it

Show me how you been
Said it's been so long, I don't recall
Used to be this way
That's the way it always seems to go

Tired and walked away
Said it's far when you don't have a place to go
Where'd you go
Tell me where am I supposed to go

Here we go, here we go again
There you go, there you go again

As the years
They go slowly bye and bye goodbye
After you, lead the way
