And stripes on fire, these hands are tired. Im making plans to drink away all these words I cant escape. I have to try to make you stay. Because Im alone, stay with me this time. Because what Im feeling inside, Im troubled or maybe Im blind, but I just cant see how this is helping me. The stars are burning bright like the light that lights your eyes. Why couldnt I see that you were leaving? Because Im alone, I need someone to be my friend. But I cant take anyone who cant stay until the end. And the stars are burning bright, the smoke is rising high, the stripes are on the street, from the mountain to the sea. Because friend youve done me wrong, left the spoils to the strong and preyed upon the weak, theres an end to you and me. Because a friend can understand that theres no trust to be had. Youre just bouncing on your strings, a puppet on a screen. Im not sure when you left, but it started with that theft, it seems its been so long.
