25

On the eve of my 25th birthday

You come knocking at my door at night

I tried a hole in my head, a hole in my pocket

Nothing makes me feel as high

As the silhouette of your body in the dim of the hallway light

You move left (Nothing had me prepared for this)

I move right (Nothing had me prepared for this)

Lordy knows you're still turning me on

Holding heavy hands with heavy hearts

The cranes on the building site

Extract the people, suspending them mid-flight

They realize that they will miss the ones they love

When they are not there

The light in my room goes on at 3:30

I take a bath because I feel dirty

The power goes out and I lay in the dark in the water

I'm running my legs across the surface

I'm in debt and I am nervous

It comes out of my pores and the way that I move my eyes

If I stare in one place for more than three seconds

I calm down and my heartbeat lessens

It's quiet outside except for the roll of the thunder, oh

Lordy knows you're still turning me on

Holding heavy hands with heavy hearts

The cranes on the building site

Extract the people, suspending them mid-flight

They realize that they will miss the ones they love

When they are not there

Lordy knows you're still turning me on

Holding heavy hands with heavy hearts

The cranes on the building site

Extract the people, suspending them mid-flight

They realize that they will miss the ones they love

When they are not there

Nothing had me prepared for this

(When they are not there)

Nothing had me prepared for this

On the eve of my 26th birthday

You come knocking at my door at night

I tried a hole in my head, a hole in my pocket

Nothing makes me feel as high

As the silhouette of your body in the dim of the hallway light

You move left (Nothing had me prepared for this)

I move right (Nothing had me prepared for this)

You move left (Nothing had me prepared for this)

I move right (Nothing had me prepared for this)
