Trampoline

The floor will have its way it seems It fights me like a trampoline It won't let me on the ground So this time I'm not coming down No, this time I'm not coming down I've been talking in my sleep You once kissed me, now you hear me speak You loved me just so goodly Every bit of life wrung out of me And this time I'm not coming down No, this time I'm not coming down Trampoline Trampoline The whole platoon is overfed And we're in this thing over our heads My mind has never been so clear But I stutter like an auctioneer As the night has come alive with griefs That hew and holler, spit and scream Everyone of them is sick with lust But everyone of them will outlive us And this time I'm not coming down No, this time I'm not coming down Trampoline Trampoline And if I really thought I could I'd give up your ghost for good But I'm not sure it isn't you That keeps my ghost from leaving too But I don't miss you half as much As who you made me think I was When I could see myself the way you do And I could almost see myself in you I could almost see myself in you And this time I'm not coming down No, this time I'm not coming down No, this time I'm not coming down Trampoline Trampoline Trampoline Trampoline Trampoline
