Welcome to a world of infinite pleasures After all they finally did it I will never be bored again I went to a school for fancy boys and girls And they welcomed me into this world I just did whatever they said Pressed up, nose against the window Open wide, suck down the storm You can mold your world like a little god You and your little friends with their fungible forms Everyone I know knows what I'm talking about When I talk about getting away It's just one of those things you say Cuz these modern pleasures are all just pain displaced Over borrowed time and space Crowning mantles in Chekhovian plays Pressed up, nose against the window Open wide, suck down the storm The man on the street, that's a stronger man's cross to bear Not you or your little friends with your feeble forms Yeah, your feeble forms What I wouldn't give to never need to write this song again Least of all about my dearest friend I used to walk the woodlands with the robins and the wrens Now the asphalt never seems to end Was I asking for too much when I asked to be your crutch? Cuz I find it tough enough just to be I gave you everything I am but I'm not what you need And now we both know, now we both go free Well, you ask me what I want, I'll say I want us to get free But really I just want you to be proud of me Cuz even when the greatest good is just to go to sleep Blue eyes light my room, shining witheringly Well, they say when hedgehogs hug they can't help but beckon blood Words strike like thunderbolts, fights like flash floods So I get why we all went to where we just do it make-believe But I've learned it brings the remorseful no relief You could have what you wanted To drop the weight and walk away And you could have what you needed To laugh about it all someday So it turns out the whole thing was just about a girl again Still I felt the need to play pretend Cuz what time is there for little things when we're so near the end? Turning all the little things to sand And how will you move the world when a word sends you unfurling? When the mirror stares and you can't meet your own eyes I don't need that loving kind of love to keep me satisfied But it's hard without an old friend by your side You could have what you wanted To drop the weight and walk away You could have what you needed To laugh about it all someday I used to think that we'd just live on forever Those golden youths who lit the summer lawns And you'd still be sitting by the window with your painting things And mending dragonfly wings You could have what you wanted To drop the weight and walk away You could have what you needed To laugh about it all someday You could have what you wanted To drop the weight and walk away You could have what you needed To laugh about it all someday
