Left Chooses the Right

lyrics

I've given up eating
So I'm throwing up instead
I mean, well, who's gonna love me anyway

I'm walking down paths
That I already know
50 people pass me by
As I'm walking on my own

Glowing colours in their hair
Close my eyes as I walk past their
Candle lights, flourescent whites, shine in their eyes
Their coloured eyes

Pack me up and take me home
I know, my body's falling apart
But time goes on and I'm still left in the dark

It's crazy the numbers
Of the people I walk past, slow
Never knowing the thoughts
That flow straight through their heads

The times I've walked on by
Forgetting that maybe they're as lost as me

"So I'll give up forgetting and hold on to giving
my cigarette to the man that needs it most."

"He needs it most"

Pack me up and take me home
I know, my body's falling apart
But time goes on and I'm still left in the dark

Packing up my bags with all that I own
Hoping for daylight's kiss
A moment if, the left chooses the right.

Back up. Wait a minute,
there's another passing moment,
There's a flicker of light
I saw in the sky

Fading delicately, back into night
Let's hope it's not somebody's daylight

I'm sleeping standing up
Ive never wanted my own bed so much
So much

Pack me up and take me home
I know, my body's falling apart
But time goes on and I'm still left in the dark

Packing up my bags with all that I own
Hoping for daylight's kiss
A moment if, the left chooses the right.
