Agnes

Agnes, just stop and think a minute

Why don't you light that cigarette and

Calm down now, stop and breathe a second

Go back to the very beginning

Can't you see what was different then?

You were just poppin' Percocet

Maybe just four a week at best

Maybe a smoke to clear the head

Your head is so numb

That nervous breath you try to hide

Between the motions

That trembling tender little sign

And so it goes

A choking rose back

To be reborn

I want to hold you like you're mine

You see the sad in everything

A genius of love and loneliness and

This time you overdid the liquor

This time you pulled the fuckin' trigger

These days, you're rollin' all the time

So low, so you keep gettin' high

Where went that cheeky friend of mine?

Where went that billion dollar smile?

Guess life is long

When soaked in sadness

On borrowed time

From Mr. Madness

And so it goes

A choking rose back

To be reborn

I want to hold you like you're mine

You're gone, but you're on my mind

I'm lost, but I don't know why

You're gone, but you're on my mind

I'm lost, but I don't know why

You're gone, but you're on my mind

I'm lost, but I don't know why

You're gone, but you're on my mind

I'm lost, but I don't know why

You're gone, but you're on my mind

I'm lost, but I don't know why

You're gone, but you're on my mind

I'm lost, but I don't know why

You're gone, but you're on my mind

I'm lost, but I don't know why

You're gone, but you're on my mind

I'm lost, but I don't know why
