step off

You sure look real pretty in your glass house
You probably think you’re too good to take the trash out
Well are you dumb or are you blind?
Cause it’s a real fine line
Between telling a joke and turning the knife
Don’t wreck my reputation
Let me wreck my own

Step off, step off
Yeah you’re getting too close to me
With all your negativity
Just get lost
Just trying to make a little difference here
So why you gotta interfere?
Just keep climbing that mountain of dirty tricks
When you finally get to the top
Step off
Yeah

You screwed everybody over in this town
There ain’t nothing between you and the cold hard ground
Keep running your mouth and stretching the truth
You just might find a hole in your parachute
Cuz Whatever gets you high
Will always bring you down

So step off, step off
Yeah you’re getting too close to me
With all your negativity
Just get lost
Just trying to make a little difference here
So why you gotta interfere?
Just keep climbing that mountain of dirty tricks
When you finally get to the top
Step off

Sticks and stones may build a throne but
You’ll be up there all alone

So step off
Yeah yeah step off
Keep climbing that mountain of dirty tricks, yeah
When you finally get to the top
Step off
Just step off
Step off

He said “I’ll love you ’til I die”
She told him “you’ll forget in time”
As the years went slowly by
She still preyed upon his mind

He kept her picture on his wall
Went half crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all
Hoping she’d come back again

Kept some letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single I love you

I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn’t see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I’d seen him smile in years

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they’ll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

(Spoken)
You know she came to see him one last time
Oh and we all wondered if she would
And it kept running through my mind
‘This time he’s over her for good’

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they’ll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

They invented a reason
That’s why it stings
They don’t think you matter
Because you don’t have pretty rings
I keep telling you I don’t care
I keep saying there’s one thing they can’t change

I’m your moon
You’re my moon
We go round and round
From out here,
It’s the rest of the world that looks so small
Promise me
You will always remember who you are

Let them shuffle the numbers
Watch them come and go
We’re the ones who are out here
Out past the edge of what they know
We can only be who we are
It doesn’t matter if they don’t understand

I’m your moon
You’re my moon
We go round and round
From out here,
It’s the rest of the world that looks so small
Promise me
You will always remember who you are

Who you were
Long before
They said you were
No more

Sad excuse for a sunrise
It’s so cold out here
Ice and silence and dark skies
As we go round another year
Let them think what they like, we’re fine
I will always be right here next to you

I’m your moon
You’re my moon
We go round and round
From out here,
It’s the rest of the world that looks so small
Promise me
You will always remember who you are
