Lyrics
Sitting in a safe café/Talking with her hands/I?ll be wound up to unravel you/A lonely victim of fashion/Or was it just bad luck/That wrapped you in this gauzy haze of blue?/Reaching for a coffee cup/A symbol or a sign/What would I have if you were mine?/Saccharine or sugar/A platitude or rhyme/Would there be a glow beneath the shine?/You don?t wanna talk about/Not giving in or giving out/A little bit of sickness might do the girl some good/Time to try the things she never understood/A little bit of sickness and a hand to hold you down/Saddle up give flight to an appetite and you won?t drown/Daddy never cut you down/You?re not hurting I don?t mind/Always there to lace you up to size/Never to go wanting anything beyond your reach/With a regimen of all that beauty buys/Passion never ran so free/Fighting time and gravity/Dangerous to wake a girl that?s sleepwalking/Were you sleeping or awake/When you grabbed that ring?/Fell into all mediocrity would bring/Everything your mother said/In your armor so severe/They won?t ever find you here/Where you never feel to fear the touch/Of a bleeding heart and a crying crutch/And when you find that love?s gone home/To crumbling soil her seed unsown/And easy answers will not fit/You could use a little bit of sickness
