lyrics

I left this door unlocked and open
Consider this a start
To where I’m making up for building walls
Around an empty skull and callin it
A chance for me to get a head
I forget to plan ahead sometimes…

So let’s break bread instead of break off
And here’s a toast to you
Cuz you were shaking up and changing patterns
Repeating and unchecked without a sign of ever slowing down
I forget to take it slow sometimes…

Break in and then take on over
My brain’s your model train
You are welcome here for now and ever x2

And so you stare with eyes wide open
My arms are just the same
They’re taking in and holding down your thoughts about our cat
And how she’s not afraid of anything
Oh I wish that we could switch sometimes

Switch places, but I’ll face it
The future’s not far behind
And yeah it’s sick and it’s twisted
The way that fate can unwind
It ties me up and gets loose when
There’s nothing left for me to try and I was spent
Before I spent a lot of time with you

Break in and then take on over
My brain’s your model train
You are welcome here for now and ever x2

And you are gold
So gold…
