I looked through a stained glass window From inside a sinking cathedral And I could not distinguish sky from sea So I climbed the stony steeple 'Till the water climbed up to my neck And I had to grab onto a floating pew And called out to you I looked through a high-rise window From inside your Brooklyn bedroom We laid there 'till we could not Distinguish music Of the crickets from the birds So I climbed your iron fire escape Until the sunlight filled my eyes And I jumped onto the subway platform To forget you

She held up the mirror And made me look She said that my smile's held up By a thousand hooks 'Cause I listen and I take... On everybody's pain So I gave her All the ends And I told her to pull and pull and pull And make me unravel... I'm so put together I'm a mannequin-mind So no one can see all My plastic crimes 'Cause I'm naked and terrified... That it's showing through my eyes So I gave her Both my sleeves And I told her to pull and pull and pull And make me unravel... So I told her to pull and pull and pull And make me unravel... I told her to pull and pull and pull And make me unravel...

There's static on the radio But I can hear you without the music anyway, anyway And there's geometric memories playing across my windshield But I can feel you without remembering your face Anyway, I believe I've digressed again so I... Better keep my eyes on the Better keep my eyes Better keep my eyes On the road The yellow lines are cracking gray But I can see you without your outlines anyway, anyway And there's all these backwards street signs Contorted and restless and glaring But I can find you without a compass any day Anyway, I believe I've digressed again so I... Better keep my eyes on the Better keep my eyes Better keep my eyes On the road I don't need a picture or a trinket or a letter To remind me It is unnecessary to pack every moment Into a picture frame All I need is the feeling I get when I see these Sparkling streetlamps without you so... I Better keep my eyes on the Better keep my eyes Better keep my eyes On the road
