BUTTON
from the album A Scattered Little Mess | 2007
this ain't no good for me
but i'm not good at seeing
anything before it all goes down in a blaze
we've talked about this
i've tried everything
drinking and reasoning
i'll soon be lost in another pair of eyes
and the longing for a kiss
'til i get pulled, like a thread
through a tiny little button hole of hope
where i'm fastened and fearless
waiting for the fall
this will be like everything
i have ever done
i'll do it blindly, i'll do it with a vengence
that always leaves me cold
'til i get pulled, like a thread
through a tiny little button hole of hope
where i'm fastened and fearless
waiting for the fall
I will still walk away
with a smile on my face.
Mother Mary, can you help me?
Can you help me through the night?
Mother Mary, can you help me?
Can you help me see the light?
