lyrics

I've waited a lifetime just to be a child. Will I always be a child? Maybe I should try a little bit harder. Maybe you shouldn't get so mad to start with. You've wasted no time shedding all your skin, but not your bad habits. Maybe I should try a little bit harder. Maybe you shouldn't get so mad to start with. Let the pieces fall into place. The biggest jigsaw ever solved. I wish you were...

I want you! I want you!

The distinctive beat of clanking bones. In the brush I howl alone. Bark a tune 'til someone sings along. Now you're haunting me like a ghost. Sleeping in ten feet of snow. The sparrow sings a song in the pine grow. He'll sing a song so everyone will know. I wont ever be what you wanted me to be. I just wish you'd let me rest. I wish you were dead.

Sooner or later everyone I know will track me down and slit my throat. They'll cheer aloud when I can sing no more. Now you're haunting me like a ghost. Sleeping in ten feet of snow. The sparrow sings a song in the pine grow. He'll sing a song so everyone will know. I wont ever be what you wanted me to be. I just wish you'd let me rest. I wish you success.

I want you!
