launching pad

may 13 2003

You thought you had a launching pad
but you had a broken diving board
into a empty swimming pool

you stood on the edge
I saw you slide
you were going down as
I was passing you by
I saw you smile

I have to make it Beautiful
I have to make it Beautiful

You built this house
without any doors to keep out
the things that make it worse
and I broke in

It is us against the world
I wanted to yell you were standing
there screaming as well
I saw you smile

I have to make it Beautiful
I have to make it Beautiful

some one turning

back against the sun
shadows fall
everything stands still
so hard to move around

turn around turn around again
turn around turn around again
turn around turn around again
turn around turn around again

take your skin
turn it inside out
let the people see
what you're really about

turn around turn around again
turn around turn around again
turn around turn around again
turn around turn around again
