mister i don't want to think about tomorrow
i've seen enough today to make me drown
and what you call so logical and easy
makes me tremble
and i'm so very scared for falling down
still i don't want to make no trouble
i don't want to be the rebel soul
and i'm trying to work this out
but as best as i can understand it
i'm gonna end up all alone
cuz i got this one thing
that's in between us
it's all i see now,
it's all around
and the empty altar calls
but i think i'll ride my big mistake
all the way down
in innocence she could lead me to water
and all the things that could be mine
but underneath her white
are the bone and blood that struggle with my need
to be reconciled
so i don't think this is gonna be so easy
i don't think it's gonna be a happy day
when i come calling
ready with my sticks and stones and
she's not home to play
cuz i got this one thing
that's in between us
it's all i see now,
it's all around
and the empty altar calls
but i think i'll ride my big mistake
all the way down
