Don't Let Me Fall

I've got a little rocket ship, and bags under my eyes
I've got a cold steel vision and a lightning bolt disguise
But I'm as soft as a feather, and I bend most every day
And I always come back in a slightly different way
I've got a snowball head, and diamonds in the rough
Tumbling around with other broken stuff
And with every crooked smile of the strangers passing by
I'm in awe of their darkness and I soak up all their light
So baby won't you hold me, down the cold avenue
Round firecrackers and distant eyes that make me blue
Baby will you take my heart and pin it to the wall
My shaky hands are slipping, don't let me fall
When I met her, she was light as a late summer morning
Her laugh like a playful breeze on my shoulders
Just being near her added an hour to each day
And I was scared that her starry gaze might drift away
But she was a big bright hammer on my creaky floors
Her lips on mine opened an ancient door
That’d been locked long before I was even born
Destined to chase my blues away
And when she takes over my head in the late night hours
A whole city is there for her to walk around
The highways are ablaze as my fever spreads
And the streets echo her name
So baby won't you hold me, down the cold avenue
Round firecrackers and distant eyes that make me blue
Baby will you take my heart and pin it to the wall
My shaky hands are slipping, don't let me fall

wanna let go of all the anger in my heart
violent dreams always find me, tear me apart
I was rolling down a quiet golden road
just a young man slipping out of boyhood slow
when a hurricane hit me from behind
and by the time he was gone, i was crying
wanna let go of all the anger in my heart
violent dreams always find me, tear me apart
I was drawing out a pattern in the sand
just a young boy trying hard to be a man
bloody knuckles knocked me out from heaven high
and when I imagine his face
all the gentle parts of me start to die
wanna let go of all the anger in my heart
violent dreams always find me, tear me apart
and as I'm running
little fantasies
seep into the cracks in my soul
if I could just ruin everything
drive a stake into my heart
and watch it go
and it feels so good
and it feels so good
and it feels so good
wanna let go of all the anger in my heart
violent dreams always find me, tear me apart
