You're so devil-may-care
like you thought you could barely
spare me.
You're in sync with the signs,
with the craziest times, please,
spare me.
Now you feel so confused
by the pleasures I choose,
you'd love to spare me,
keep me bound and possessed,
keep the knife in my chest,
oh won't you, spare me!
You said some gorgeous things,
but only half the time,
only half the time.
I lived your gorgeous dream,
for only half a life,
only half a life.
Pre-Columbian steel
cuts so hard and so deeply,
spare me.
Geographically tied
to some place you can't find, please,
spare me.
All these verses fall flat
like a stone in a hat,
oh won't you spare me?
Sell your soul for a fee
to the dull bourgeoisie?
Come on now, spare me!
You said some gorgeous things,
but only half the time,
only half the time.
I lived your gorgeous dream,
for only half a life,
only half a life.
