I'll Be Around

Yes, I'm only a man
 Judgements of something ancient
 Clocking my time as finished
 The same is all replacements
 Ignorance is complacency
 Why are you purposely fading?
 No stand, no sit, no stopping
 Ripping through the neon prophecies
 Got let off by a ticket stub
 My time is fading fast
 Through your mouth and out yours
 (You never do what you say)
 Say what?
 (Shine till the sun comes up)
 Come down
 (You oughta wash your hands and pray)
 For what?
 (Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood)
 Pass it round
 (You never do what you say)
 Say what?
 (Shine till the sun comes up)
 For now
 (You promise that you'll come around?)
 I'll be around
 ♪
 So I fear, but I don't know what it is
 So I want, but I pretend I don't need
 So here's the pain of the stubbled lover's kiss
 I throw my pages all away like shaking wrists
 So shake me down
 Shake me up (Shake me down, shake me down)
 So shake me down
 Shake me up (Shake me down, shake me down)
 So shake me up
 ♪
 (You never do what you say)
 Say what?
 (Shine till the sun comes up)
 Hey now
 (You oughta wash your hands and pray)
 For what?
 (Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood)
 Pass it round
 (You never do what you say)
 Say what?
 (Shine till the sun comes up)
 Come down
 (You promise that you'll come around?)
 I'll be around
 ♪
 I tell me it ain't hard
 As I hold my breath thinking why
 Tell me to my beating heart
 That I know for sure
 Better than I can know for sure
 What it did
 My mistakes bend like payphone metal
 I never know just what will come
 Some place our hands bind together
 River and me children
 Longer than a trillion
 Get what I am given, forever
 (So shake me up)
 (You never do what you say)
 Say what?
 (Shine till the sun comes up)
 Come down
 (You oughta wash your hands and pray)
 For what?
 (Shaking hands, swapping dirty blood)
 Pass it round
 (You never do what you say)
 Say what?
 (Shine till the sun comes up)
 For now
