i don't need a big house i don't have a lot of things but i've got a big old mind that's jam-packed to the brim i've done myself some thinking and i want to start anew so won't you come on down and pour me out until there's space for you? i don't need a big yard to have folks over to but i've got a big old heart that's empty cold and blue there's just the wax of an old flame and a residue of skin so won't you come on down and fill me up? i'll see you safely in i went to the market just to see what i could find everyone was waiting for something good and so i stood in line but what i need's awful different i don't need another thing i need you to come on down and pour me out i'll see you safely in

hemmed and hogtied hatcher in his hide hung up on someone's bride she won't be his but she is now and he's a bleeding heart hemmed and hogtied holed up in my head hanging out in someone's bed i beg of you let's make some mistakes before you depart i know it's never gonna work i know it never really does i know you're never gonna tell me that you love me but won't you please just be my olivia because i'm wild and wasted i'm your little plaything i'm your fish filet i fill you up i'll be sure to smile until my last breath you've got me brined and basted i'm your main entree until you've gone away so please enjoy and eat me up until there ain't nothing left i know it's never gonna work and it was flawed right from the start but what could be more romantic than letting you tear my life apart? drunken deep-fried diligent despised hung up on someone's bride she won't be his but she was once and he's a bleeding heart done with delight until the next drive seeing myself through your eyes i knew it all along there ain't no need to apologize i know it's never gonna work you'll never go that extra mile i know you're never gonna tell me that you love me but won't you please just be my olivia for a while?

i never called you a liar i just called you cold but still i do just as i'm told and i never said you're black-hearted i said you could've had a heart and that you left me in the dark saying that you need a lover baby you love that grind you look so hard that you can't find i never called you a robber i said you lost my mind an empty shell's been left behind and you never fed me black butter you fed me salty hopes lack of sweetness left me blind saying that you need a lover but girl you need some help to keep your lovers on the shelf i never called you a liar i just called you cold but still i do just as i'm told and nobody said you're black-hearted i said you could've had a heart and that you left me in the dark saying that you need a partner your partner is your chore and there ain't room for nothing more and i'm in the dark like a dead man in a grave i'm in the dark like a kid that won't behave i'm in the dark like a fugitive in a cave i'm in the dark like a frail old man in bed i'm in the dark like the storm clouds overhead i'm in the dark it's an unsolved crime that it's been on my mind after all this time and i'm in the dark an incessant dripping faucet i'm the monster in your closet in the dark it's an unsolved crime that it's been on my mind after all this time and i'm in the dark

sometimes a day feels like a second and sometimes a day feels like a year each year i reassess my winnings and see whether i'm up to gear and this time i saw you waiting and then i put my life aside for what we were creating and i've got nowhere else to hide i know i need to find what i really want and what i'm supposed to do but i can't help but take my life and give it all up to you through it all i played the rules and i might just be out of touch i say i'm gonna get rewarded 'cause i care so much but it doesn't matter who you are it doesn't matter what you do in the end you're gonna get what's coming to you it doesn't matter what you gave it doesn't matter what's your name it all happens how it happens and there ain't nothing to blame you say life is just a mess but just a mess is what life is sometimes i think if it's a test or is this the life i'll always live? i manage all i can and then i have to manage you you manage to make straight lines bend and rend my troubled world in two i know you need to find what you really want and what you're supposed to do but you're doing only what you can to help yourself get through through it all i played the rules the rules were breathe and take it slow but now i hope you've got the blues i hope you're miserable but i know it doesn't matter who you are it doesn't matter what you do in the end you're gonna get what's coming to you it doesn't matter what you gave it doesn't matter what's your name it all happens how it happens and there ain't nothing to blame
