Sitting on the sidelines Watching wallflowers grow Swinging to the music Even though my feet are froze On the heels of wild abandon Lady Victory says goodnight I might never get it .... right And as I slip through shadows on a machine of suicide The faces on the sidewalks They were dancing genocide And they spit in my direction As I went into a slide I might never get it ... right Some understanding I feel so all alone Need some understanding I feel so all alone I need some understanding I feel so all alone And the morning came in whispers But I had no time to pose While the prom queen in the alley Washed the stains out of her clothes And I guzzled my communion In a search for inner life But I threw it up ... twice I might never get it ... right
