Lyrics

Mine is a lonely one, I forgot to have fun, standing under the street light
Ever so nervously, people lookin' down on me, telling me it's all right

If it were up to me I'd tear down this whole city, what's all this shit here for
I give you my heart, but you still say I make you feel like a whore

All this trouble just to die, all this trouble's only temporary

It's temporary, temporary
It's temporary

Took away his power but he hides a tiny flower in the corner of his jail cell
He'd never been outside he just can't hide, he'd just as soon be in hell

Get off the fuckin' telephone, why'd you hate to be alone, paranoid of death and love
Ever so patiently we sit upon our sinkin' ship waiting for the black dove

All this trouble just to die, all this trouble's only temporary

It's temporary, it's temporary
It's temporary, it's temporary

Sad that I could make it, I'm glad that I could fake, I'm sorry but I got to go
I ain't afraid of cryin', I ain't afraid of dyin'
I ain't afraid of what I don't know

Sat a lot and pulled your hair, stupid bitches everywhere
nothing that could look me in the eye
I ain't afraid of cryin', ain't afraid of dyin'
Ain't afraid of what I don't know

It's temporary, it's temporary
It's temporary, it's temporary
