Lyrics

[Intro] Honey bee, she say I got too much sympathy But I can call her any time And if you're lost, and you need a little peace from me Bring all your trouble by Honey bee, how have I hurt you? C'mon, tell your blues to me Maybe I should live up there in the curtains On the wings of Mercury [Verse 1] I was fortunately desperate And turbulently innocent I was living underneath my body weight My eyes were swollen, green and hazy Sick from grief and hate and envy I was crawling up inside my head [Chorus] And all I seemed to find is that everything has chains And all this life just feels like a series of dreams Selected poems and lovers I can't begin to name And all in all I find that nothing stays the same And I was crazy like the moon for you And head over my heels for you And never would I change or compromise But something in my mind does things I can't contain for anything Last night I don't think sleep even touched my eyes [Chorus] [Guitar solo] [Chorus - variation] And all I seem to find is how everything has chains And all this life just feels like an idiot dream Selected poems and lovers I never seen again And all in all I find that nothing stays the same
