Poison Apple

Well, you don't think that it's working 'Cause you don't think it's sublime And these windows only hurt you As you hold me close tonight I've been dreaming still of wingless birds that circle in the sky Certain to plummet forth the second they look down from up on high If I'm relying On hearing silver bells ring Then why keep trying If the angels aren't singing Hallelujah, I'm gonna go and bring the poison apple to ya Once you know, it's down you go If your birds are hell bent On seeking the heaven sent Then don't you try to be content With anything a little less So, let's carry on (Carry on) Now that the going's really gone No more to idealize now that I've realized how I was wrong And don't bring around that mirror A would be curse to see the worst And see it all in me And all these bruises on my wings From trying oh so hard to sing the hallelujah (Hallelujah) I'm gonna go and bring the poison apple to ya Once you know, it's down you go If your birds are hell bent On seeking the heaven sent Then don't you try to be content With anything a little less Ohhh, Ohhh Oh-ah-Ohh-Ah, Ah-Ohh-Ah-Ohh-Ahh-Ohh No, no, no, no, no If knowledge of the future was the only reason why Then your innocence forsook you When you brought our love to die I've been dreaming still of wingless birds that circle in the sky Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh If I'm relying On hearing silver bells ring Then why keep trying 'Cause you know they won't sing I thought I knew ya But you don't think that we belong together, do ya? So swing your sack over your shoulder and be gone Oh, what have I done?
