Don't lay it on me, on me

Don't you leave me here

I like to sit and cry

In front of my TV

I like to think of words to scream

About all it is I am

And all it is I wanna be

Over and over I laugh and cry

But the movie it ain't as real

As I want it to be

I like to sit and cry over and over again

And the tears they please me

They are all I need to know

And a man on a bike comes on

He says:

'Hey my wheels don't turn

If the road don't feel right'

I say: 'I'll just stand still and wait

For the skies to burn at night'

So I can bury you

It's all I can do

So you won't come through

At least for a little while

My life will be alright

I like to sit and watch it all I can

Crying like a man

And leave it for another day

I'll stay here in my precious cage

And lose it while I can

Cut if off by minute roots

And stick it in the ground

And bury you, it's all I can do

So you won't come through

At least for a little while

My life will be alright

You see I been waiting

Here in doubt

But I don't fear your lightshows

And I don't fear your eyes

Not anymore

Everytime we score

I like to sit and cry

And on that score

I think I'll cry a little more

I think I'll keep the TV on

I think I'll cry for all night long

I'm sure that it won't do me no good

No, but it will

Shake you off of me momma

And cut you loose from me girl

It means the world to bury you

It's all I can do

So you won't come through

At least for a little while

My life will be alright
