Sharp with a hunch Steady with a gun Sour on the tongue Catheter club Heart skips a beat Steady on his feet No music playing Measure the pause Crave applause from the wounded others Miserable thoughts Burning leaves staring from the gutters Through the window of your house While you're out Dull medicine Limp like a string Busted shoelace Little time to waste Subtle as Stone Skin on the floor Absent from the bone Missing from the store Spread to the edge Stale bit of bread And nothing worth saying Measure the pause Crave applause from the wounded others Miserable thoughts Burning leaves staring from the gutters Through the window of your house While you're out Delicate again Common sense took its leave of absence Tarnished and afraid To behave in a way that matters Magic on the brain Say goodbye to a dull reflection Leaving for the day To return through a bad connection Speaking on the telephone When you're home
