Threaded with a Sewn Up Smile

Call me crazy
Is this as hard for you
As it is for me
Color me wild
Candid cartwheels
I'm a kaleidoscope focusing
Like I'll never see you again
Back door goodbye
Slipped away
Only you could leave me half empty inside

Would it bother you to know
I'm at the end of this rope
Cornered by you in the lamplight's glow

Hand on your chest
Unflinching
Because I'm losing my boots running from these hills
Up over fences
Charming guards for cheap thrills
Roll on away
Cheap perfume and renegades
So let them marvel at this mystery
Clueless lines that sink their way to me

Would it bother you to know
I'm at the end of this rope
Cornered by you in the lamplight's glow

You make time for me over China doll glass
I'm reckless
Can you grant me that?
Twist tying my hands to yours
Let me jump start this car
Leave tracks on these carpet floors
If I crash
When I crash
Wheel me to the apothecary
You think you scare me?

And would it bother you to know
I'm at the end of this rope
Cornered by you in the lamplight's glow

Run me over
Kill me slow
If you love me softly
Then let me go
