stepping long, I'm home on the sidewalk
a marionette is slain
your legs are wood and tied to the city
who has final say

it's hard to hold the girders my brother
it's hard to swing and walk
with your temper one beat less than teh other
and three times more in fall

I don't know why don't know why
don't know why you stay
yeah don't know why don't know why
don't know why you stay

if we swim away we're stuck on horizon
just catch it when it goes
or to take a piece and pull back the curtains
and there's nothing left but yoru clothes

I don't know why don't know why
don't know why you stay
I don't know why don't know why
don't know why you stay

know....
(instrumental bridge)
(guitar kicks in)

the strings awry you move to Geppeto
the day, the hourglass
this match made was made in a moment
but now that moment's past

I don't know why don't know why
don't know why you stay
I don't know why don't know why
don't know why you stay
I don't know why don't know why
don't know why you stay
don't know why don't know why
don't know why you stay...

know....
