Button Eyes

you make the stars seem closer, the world seem over, only setting up for a new beginning
i try and listen as the block thickens, make a way, a cross, drag it fifty feet or more
progress is when we drop it
too crazy to continue, an insane innuendo, take a minute, spare a second, i keep on self forgetting
hand your hat in, hands in pockets, famished and rail thin we vanish in thin air, we look closer there - read that twice
you're a bit scarce, cloaked in a garment from a deceased relative, it's all completely relative and thanks for that
learn a lesson, take a step back so you can fit in, it's fantasy
all these words are so abrasive, cut open like a steak knife, you're so irresistible, an artistic criminal, and think you can pin me down, we move around
ohhh this little light of mine, we can't let it die
i cried when you went blind, lost your button eyes, they were hanging by a thread, same eyes that wanted me dead, i still wish them the best
they said "you're up the river with no paddle" and i bet you can't imagine, waters so rough they do damage, but so shallow you can't drown in
