The Only Thing

The only thing that keeps me from driving this car Half-light, jack knife into the canyon at night Signs and wonders, Perseus aligned with the skull Slain Medusa, Pegasus alight from us all Do I care if I survive this? Bury the dead where they're found In a veil of great surprises I wonder, did you love me at all? The only thing that keeps me from cutting my arm Cross hatch, warm bath, Holiday Inn after dark Signs and wonders, water stain writing the wall Daniel's message, blood of the moon on us all Do I care if I despise this? Nothing else matters, I know In a veil of great disguises How do I live with your ghost? Should I tear my eyes out now? Everything I see returns to you, somehow Should I tear my heart out now? Everything I feel returns to you, somehow I wanna save you from your sorrow The only reason why I continue at all Faith in reason, I wasted my life playing dumb Signs and wonders, sea lion caves in the dark Blind faith, God's grace, nothing else left to impart Do I care if I survive this? Bury the dead where they're found In a veil of great surprises Hold my head till I drown Should I tear my eyes out now? Before I see too much Should I tear my arms out now? I want to feel your touch Should I tear my eyes out now? Everything I see returns to you, somehow Should I tear my heart out now? Everything I feel returns to you, somehow
