Stairwell B

I've been looking at the weather
Should've known someday always meant never
Now you wanna go back but it's too late
'Cause I licked my plate and I waved goodbye
At the wrong place at the right time
Sick of white lies, hickey on your neck
And you know that I ain't a vampire
Whos the other guy?
Where's the brighter side?
I did nothing wrong, you did nothing right
You've got me wondering if what I've heard is true
Fill my heart up with cotton, 'cause what have I to lose?

Open up both the doors to the stairwell
Open the gate to my brain
Fall in a cycle of endless denial and
Telling me that I'm insane
Changing the stories like channels
I'm out here looking for change
A wolf in sheep's clothing, A black and white flannel
A player whos looking for games

Hand on my desk and you say you've got many
You listed a friend of me, I don't want enemies
I wanna let it be, stop sitting next to me
Reach in my pocket, you're calling to tell him what
Jenny don't know won't hurt her
Listen to my friends? Yeah I heard them but I just won't learn
How to make a left at a right turn
I'm uncomfortably numb, I got a limited worth
Tell me why you bought twelve keys
If the door never locks, if the clock never stops
Man it's shocking to me
How deceiving a dancer could be
With those big puppy eyes, I'm the one on the leash
You're the one with the teeth and you bite
You're the blood-hungry leech in my life
I know I fit in just right with your type
Breaking my heart just to get to his, right?

Open up both the doors to the stairwell
Open the gate to my brain
Fall in a cycle of endless denial and
Telling me that I'm insane
Changing the stories like channels
I'm out here looking for change
A wolf in sheep's clothing, A black and white flannel
A player whos looking for games

Open up both the doors to the stairwell
Open the gate to my brain
Fall in a cycle of endless denial and
Telling me that I'm insane
Changing the stories like channels
I'm out here looking for change
A wolf in sheep's clothing, A black and white flannel
A player whos looking for games

You don't know the half of it
With my heart on the line
In my back, there's your knife
As you look at me through both your snake eyes

You don't know the half of it
With my heart on the line
In my back, there's your knife
As you look at me through both your snake eyes
