The Only Thing - Live

Lyrics

The only thing that keeps me from driving this car
 Half-light, jack knife into the canyon at night
 Signs and wonders: Perseus aligned with the skull
 Slain Medusa, Pegasus alight from us all
 Do I care if I survive this?
 Bury the dead where they're found
 In a veil of great surprises:
 I wonder did you love me at all?
 The only thing that keeps me from cutting my arm
 Cross hatch, warm bath, Holiday Inn after dark
 Signs and wonders: water stain writing the wall
 Daniel's message, blood of the moon on us all
 Do I care if I despise this?
 Nothing else matters, I know
 In a veil of great disguises:
 How do I live with your ghost?
 Should I tear my eyes out now?
 Everything I see returns to you somehow
 Should I tear my heart out now?
 Everything I feel returns to you somehow
 I want to save you from your sorrow
 ♪
 The only reason why I continue at all
 Faith in reason, I wasted my life playing dumb
 Signs and wonders: sea lion caves in the dark
 Blind faith, God's grace, nothing else left to impart
 Do I care if I survive this?
 Bury the dead where they're found
 In a veil of great surprises,
 Hold to my head till I drown
 Should I tear my eyes out now,
 Before I see too much?
 Should I tear my arms out now?
 I want to feel your touch
 Should I tear my eyes out now?
 Everything I see returns to you somehow
 Should I tear my heart out now?
 Everything I feel returns to you somehow
