Every fault that i repent
thereand's another chip you havenand't spent
and youand're cashing them all in
where do we begin
To get clean again
can we get clean again
I walk home alone with you
and the mood youand're born into
sometimes you led me in
and i take it on the chin
I canand't get clean again
i want to know
can we get clean again
The god of wine comes crashing through the headlight of a car-that
took you farther than you though youand'd ever want to go
We canand't get back again
you canand't get back again
She takes a drink and then she waits
the alcohol it permeates
and soon the cells give way
and cancels out the day
I canand't keep it all together
(itand's the world
stuck underneath the moon)
i know..., i know..., i know..., i know..., i know..., i know..., i know...
i canand't keep it all together
(itand's the world
stuck underneath the moon)
And the sirenand's song that is your madness
holds a truth i canand't erase
all alone on your face
Every glamorous sunrise
throws the planets out of line
the star sign out of whack
a fraudulent zodiac
And the god of wine is crouched down in my room
you let me down
i said it
and now iand'm goinand' down
and youand're not ever around
and i said 'no...'
I canand't keep it all together
(itand's the world
stuck underneath the moon)
and i know..., i know..., i know..., i know..., i know..., i know..., i know...
i canand't keep it all together
(itand's the world
stuck underneath the moon)
And thereand's a memory of a window
looking through i see you
searching from something i could never give you
and thereand's someone who understands you more than i do
a sadness i canand't erase
all alone on your face
