The Shing
01:52

Oh you made my heart sing
Just like a bird in the spring
But you kept me on your finger
Like a yo-yo and string.
I put everything into givin’ you wings
But you tied my hands with silence
And your wall-like mood swings
You are The Shing
You are The Shing
You are The Shing and I don’t ever wanna see you again.
Oh was it lies that you told
Or just a form of decode
To your manipulations my heart was vulnerable
It was a passionless waste
Of the time of our lives
Oh maybe I was too honest
You were in disguise.
You are The Shing.
I’ve been The Shing
Cause it’s the truth the truth the truth
Or just an alibi.
We’re all The Shing
That’s why we sing
Oh, to hold the devils out of us and hang em to dry.
You are The Shing.
You are The Shing.
You are The Shing and I don’t ever wanna see you again.

Here we are now I've gone on and forced it
but I had a couple things
I wanted to inform you of:
yes, I really tried to get there that day and
yes, I really meant everything that I did say.
Oh yeah I tried, I tried to make you fine,
but I was really lost and I was outta my mind.
Oh won't you please ah please forgive me,
cause I can't get you outta my dreams Leslie.
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh baby yeah yeah yeah.
Kid-i-kid-i-kid-Icarus
I don't wanna be your lover
I just wanna be your brother.
Couldn't you believe I had nothing else to say
when I say you there that day with your hips gone all asway?
I was distracted by your skirt,
like you would never know.
And how I tried to make it work,
but I was blinded though.

Please don't stop that,
hon I need that,
find your sun rays and then shine back.
Please don't stop your sunspots, sunspots.
Oh won't you please ah please forgive me
cause I can't get you outta my dreams Leslie.

Haunt All Your Mansions
03:13
|

Well so last night I died of the plague
Cause you sent me outside here to beg.
Oh though all of my malice has melted to moonlight
I'll haunt all your mansions today.
And the gardens a field and the glade...
What I've been pickin for you
Is the time that you always would waste.
You been thinkin of you.
Ooh, you been thinkin, you.
With your guards and your walls
You won't keep me out
I'll drag you down with me to hell
From the pictures that hang by themselves.
And it's painful to me to see all of this gone
With my old habits I'll haunt you well.
Raise the candles and knives to rebel.
With my thumb tappin toe finger breath scratchin walls
With my old habits I'll haunt you well.
