lyrics

Are you still walking so softly after all of this time?
And whose heart could your heart be if'n your heart isn't mine?
And how do you jumble my head up while you are laying so still?
It's not that I don't want you hunting, it's just I don't want you to kill
Me when I mention this gently, though I'm sure you will when I do
I'm just as hungry as ever but I'm still half as empty as you

So how do you get me to thinking about what I'm sure is in store?
And should I love you a thousand more times, or love you a thousand times more?
I'm not sure who you think you look like, I don't know who you feel you are
But we are surrounded by canyons and broken remote control cars
You say you're not sure if you want me, you say it is too soon to guess
But I quit, this is it, you've forgotten that I am the only one left

But have you considered the option of me laying flat on my back
And crossing the wires on the dimmer so you don't expect my attack
I'm sure that you'll laugh when you read this, I'm sure you will sniffle and squirm
But I am the only survivor of your vicious twenty month term
But where does the time go, Marissa? And what ever took us so long?
And which of us settled the science that proved all my theories so wrong?
I don't suppose that was you
