Guy Who Is Me
by: Buffalo TomTears fall down like paper around you
But I cannot get through
There's nothing I can do
'Cause you steal secrets from the gods
But I'm no god, and I wish I was
Birds fly high and fall around you
But I have to climb the stairs
You climb high just like a soldier
Your closet mind is so fucking warm
Come and see the guy who is me
An astronaut, he's lost in space
In a station where I have no friends
This is the end
Of the universe
Stay with me for quiet reasons
You don't have to make a scene
Exploding chrome glistening in the street light
And I went around and watched all of you
All of you
Come and see the guy who is me
An astronaut, he's lost in space
In a station where I have no friends
This is the end
Of the universe
Stay with me for quiet reasons
You don't have to make a scene
Exploding chrome glistening in the street light
And I went around and watched all of you
