lyrics

Retired all my love
Took stock and emptied out
Heaven ain't thinking of a bad voice that's always loud
Shot my heart and went away like lightning on a cloudless day
Unplug that light, I wanna meet the night

There is a heart inside these walls
There was another, I recall
Hope I live to see it all
But I take pride in the fall

There is a light inside this chest
Once it was brighter, I confess
I'm a mess
One day I'll come out of my shell
It's just one more year in hell

Purple and gold and white
Tinted sunglasses I where when I'm all alone
I'm the moss and I'm the rolling stone
Make yourself as comfortable as you can when you're the hand that's a' slapping the bull for the man.
The china shop ain't open and the cops don't know it but the jail ain't made of stone, it's easy blowin' for the wolf in style with a vinyl smile who comes a' knocking at the door every once in a while.
