Out Through The Curtain

Like the light was all I had I struck the book with my last match The candle burnt so soft and slow I felt the warmth and felt its glow Salt tasting tears They were all off of my lips One for each day I'm inside this house It's a trap One I can't quite escape So pretend it's the place that I love Won't let it pa*s me by again Won't let it pa*s me by again The gla*s was glim The summer sun was beating down on my front yard All the boys and girls would laugh If I watch them through the curtain's crack Place all your bets And watch me lose The life that I got but never use Dream every night That one would come true but only bad ones ever do Won't let it pa*s me by again Won't let it pa*s me by again My heart beats way too fast Til that we rest it in my lap Won't let it pa*s me by again Won't let it pa*s me by again
