Skating Polly - For The View lyrics

[Verse One] Please don't chase us to the score of a spectacle I threw my drawings in the dirt You took it hard, and you're so compelling I strode in catching stars Walked back out with screaming palms Hoping I would never leave my roses And I never did again 'cause I never thought I'd choke [Chorus] If it is the stars I lost, I lost them for you Pick me up, sell me cold, if that's what you gotta do So I should be crimed 'cause of you But I know it's fun to drain my eyes Checked into my room for the view But I know I'm yours 'cause you shut my blinds [Verse Two] Pretty features in the birds are forgettable I wonder how you wander through the cars 'cause all your fevers often Spoke highly of his fame You breathed so loud with broken words Hoping I would never leave my roses And I never laughed at all 'cause I never thought I'd choke [Chorus] If it is the stars I lost, I lost them for you Pick me up, sell me cold, if that's what you gotta do So I should be crimed 'cause of you But I know it's fun to drain my eyes Checked into my room for the view But I know I'm yours 'cause you shut my blinds [Bridge] I don't know the reasons I don't have your mail Trickle down the preachers Drag them down to scale [Chorus] If it is the stars I lost, I lost them for you Pick me up, sell me cold, if that's what you gotta do So I should be crimed 'cause of you But I know it's fun to drain my eyes Drain my eyes Drain my eyes
