Lyrics

0:01There was a wonderful structure to the city
0:03And it put my cares to rest
0:29Taking inventory of his life
0:31Seeing snapshots chronologically inline
0:34Something told him he should look around and tidy up
0:37He collected many things but never quite enough
0:40Tried looking at it from a new perspective
0:43Flat on his back but he still heard the directive
0:45Orders from that corner where that shadow always lived
0:48Never asked permissions he just hopes that they forgive
0:51I don't want to go like this
0:54At least let me clean my room
0:57I don't want to leave like this
1:00'Cause the last thing I want to do is
1:04Make my people make decisions
1:07Wondering what to do oh
1:09Should they keep it on display
1:13Or redecorate
1:15Blankets over mirrors she tends to like it
1:18She's not afraid of her reflection
1:19But of what she might see behind it
1:21She had plans to change her name
1:24Just not the traditional way
1:27Haunted by a couple big mistakes
1:29She covers all the dents with the way she decorates
1:32Then one night she got cold with no blankets on her bed
1:34So she ripped them off the mirror stepped back and she said
1:38I don't want to go like this
1:41At least let me clean my room
1:44I don't want to leave like this
1:47'Cause the last thing I want to do is
1:50Make my people make decisions
1:53Wondering what to do oh
1:56Should they keep it on display
2:00Or redecorate
2:13With the bells and the whistles scaled back
2:15Like an isolated track
2:17And he feels trapped when he's not inebriated
2:19Fair to say he's fairly sedated most days of the week
2:22He might have made it if he lived on a different street
2:25I repeat scaled back and isolated
2:27He says he likes an open schedule but he mostly hates it
2:30If you're running to his room take a breath before you break-in
2:33Put your ear up to the door tell me can you hear him saying
2:36I don't want to go like this
2:39At least let me clean my room
2:42I don't want to leave like this
2:45'Cause the last thing I want to do is
2:48Make my people make decisions
2:51Wondering what to do oh
2:54Should they keep it on display
2:58Or redecorate
2:59I don't want to go like this
3:01Go like this
3:02At least let me clean my room
3:05I don't want to leave like this
3:07Leave like this
3:08'Cause the last thing I want to do is
3:11Make my people make decisions
3:15Wondering what to do oh
3:17Should they keep it on display
3:21Or redecorate
3:33Or redecorate
3:45Or redecorate
There was a wonderful structure to the city
And it put my cares to rest
Taking inventory of his life
Seeing snapshots chronologically inline
Something told him he should look around and tidy up
He collected many things but never quite enough
Tried looking at it from a new perspective
Flat on his back but he still heard the directive
Orders from that corner where that shadow always lived
Never asked permissions he just hopes that they forgive
I don't want to go like this
At least let me clean my room
I don't want to leave like this
'Cause the last thing I want to do is
Make my people make decisions
Wondering what to do oh
Should they keep it on display
Or redecorate
Blankets over mirrors she tends to like it
She's not afraid of her reflection
But of what she might see behind it
She had plans to change her name
Just not the traditional way
Haunted by a couple big mistakes
She covers all the dents with the way she decorates
Then one night she got cold with no blankets on her bed
So she ripped them off the mirror stepped back and she said
I don't want to go like this
At least let me clean my room
I don't want to leave like this
'Cause the last thing I want to do is
Make my people make decisions
Wondering what to do oh
Should they keep it on display
Or redecorate
With the bells and the whistles scaled back
Like an isolated track
And he feels trapped when he's not inebriated
Fair to say he's fairly sedated most days of the week
He might have made it if he lived on a different street
I repeat scaled back and isolated
He says he likes an open schedule but he mostly hates it
If you're running to his room take a breath before you break-in
Put your ear up to the door tell me can you hear him saying
I don't want to go like this
At least let me clean my room
I don't want to leave like this
'Cause the last thing I want to do is
Make my people make decisions
Wondering what to do oh
Should they keep it on display
Or redecorate
I don't want to go like this
Go like this
At least let me clean my room
I don't want to leave like this
Leave like this
'Cause the last thing I want to do is
Make my people make decisions
Wondering what to do oh
Should they keep it on display
Or redecorate
Or redecorate
Or redecorate
