[Verse 1]
Yes, I still w
orry about it
Out of self-pr
eservation did
I begin with
tenderness?
The cannibal d
ragged his son
into the kitc
hen
Outside, the d
eaf man fled t
he barn abando
ning every fat
her's i - imag
e
[Chorus]
Sure, sure, I
went to LA tog
ether with my
maid
She was awfull
y quiet, her h
ands were shak
ing in the don
key's mane
I went to LA,
searching for
my own face
I couldn't fin
d it in the dr
y toothy maw o
f the lake
[Post-Chorus]
Heaven is a se
cond (Chance),
Heaven is a s
econd—
Heaven is a se
cond (Chance),
Heaven is a s
econd—
Heaven is a se
cond (Chance),
Heaven is a s
econd—
Heaven is a se
cond (Chance),
Heaven is—
[Verse 2]
Thought you su
mmoned horses,
thought you s
#
ummoned childh
ood
Oh, the humili
ation of havin
g been perfect
ly understood
If I could obs
erve beyond ev
ery open mouth
Men always end
up telling yo
u the truth, I
can see it no
-oow
See it no-ow
Every night is
a lesson down
a long hallwa
y
Good God, this
house
(
Get me away
[Chorus]
Sure, sure, su
re I went to L
A, what other
choices could
I make?
I sing along t
he road, an id
iotic smile on
my face
I went to LA,
it was easy in
the first pla
ce
Wait, wasn't I
with a friend
? What differe
nce does it ma
ke?
[Verse 3]
The owner of t
he laundromat
#
... gave me a
ride home
She said she s
#
aw me come in
alone
