My mind's for hire
It weighs heavy on me
18 pounds of fire
and 80,000 dreams
I'd tell you something, but you wouldn't understand
The deconstruction of the portrait of a man
I gave you love, and you put it in my hand
You took me back to the pack and the wolf.
My mind's for sale
16 strings and a quarter
2 kicks for my heart
Too hot to ride the soft shoulder
And if the back of your mind
was just 5 years older
Would you answer the first call?
Would you have a choice?
I'd tell you something, but you wouldn't understand
The deconstruction of the fabric of a man
You gave him love, and he put it in his hand
You took him back to the pack and the wolf.
