(thanks to lee, dan, nicole, sandra)
You start tripping and i start slipping away
I was taught to zip it if i've got nothing nice ot say
Down in texas some are driving a really big truck
Headed down a dirt road
My love is scrunching up its features
With really big eyes, big lips, big nose
Just show me a moment that is mine
Its beauty blinding and unsurpassed
And i'll forget every moment that went by
That left me so half-hearted cuz i felt it so half-asse
You are an unruly translusent dirty windshield with a shifting view
So many clean running landscapes for my dented door to open into
I just wanna tune out all the billboards, build myself a mental sheild
I just wanna put down all the pressures and feel how i really feel
Just show me a moment that is mine
Its beauty blinding and unsurpassed
And i'll forgive every moment that went by
That left me so half-hearted cuz i felt it so half-assed
Spring is super in the supermarkets and the strawberries prance and glow
Nevermind that they're all kinda tart and tasteless as strawberries go
Meanwhile the wild things are not for sale anymore than they are for show
So on the outside we love the kind of beauty it takes more than eyes to know
Just show me a moment that is mine
Its beauty blinding and unsurpassed
And i'll forget every moment that went by
That left me so half-hearted cuz i felt it so half-assed
