bust into backstage
holding nothing but a calm demeanor.
change the reel,
'cause this isn't the scene i want.
we'll burn this theatre
but release its denizens to cause their terror.
they'll initiate more harm
than a love-struck teen.
and we'll never know what hit us.
praise God from whom
all blessings flow.
praise the industry who
cradles us through the hours.
praise controversy,
eliminating life's simplicity.
but don't praise me
i'm just an interpreter.
and i never know what you mean.
pencilling with my finger,
i'm etching on your back
a message you can't read;
and i'd never intend you to.
illustrating the story
of our relationship so sadly undefined
but i'll inscribe it anyway.
i write to unload, i write for you.
and you'll never know the joy.
praise God from whom
all blessings flow.
praise the industry who
cradles us through the hours.
praise controversy,
eliminating life's simplicity.
but don't praise me
i'm just an interpreter.
and i never know what you mean.
but don't praise me.
oh don't you dare praise me,
cause you should know by now
that i never know what you mean
probably my best to date. but don't take me to court on that.
