And I think I could leave your world, If she was the better girl. So when we died I tried to bribe the undertaker. 'Cause I'm not sure what you're doin' or the reasons. You're just too used to my honey, now. You're just too used to my honey. --Tori Amos, "Honey"

(It starts with) One thing / I don’t know why It doesn’t even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme To explain in due time All I know time is a valuable thing Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings Watch it count down to the end of the day The clock ticks life away It’s so unreal Didn’t look out below Watch the time go right out the window Trying to hold on / but didn’t even know Wasted it all just to Watch you go I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter

Some people seem to think they always know what's best for you. Their little minds try to create a world to keep you still. The bolt is thrown. The cage is locked. You saw this. Don't you lie. At first you cry and then you hate. Those people stole your will.
Do as you were told, and then maybe then we'll let you out. It might be difficult. You might be full of doubt. Don't try to escape, 'cause you don't have nowhere to go. If nothing is your fate, there's no scenario.

HOLD me now I’m six feet from the edge and I’m thinking That maybe six feet Ain’t so far down I’m looking down now that it’s over Reflecting on all of my mistakes I thought I found the road to somewhere Somewhere in His grace I cried out heaven save me But I’m down to one last breath And with it let me say Let me say

I've given you southern exposure To get you to thrive. I've pinched you back hard, Like I'm s'posed ta. You're barely alive. I've tried you at levels of moisture From desert to mud.

Sunlight dances through the leaves Soft winds stir the sighing trees Lying in the warm grass Feel the sun upon your face Eleven songs and endless nights Sweet wine and soft relaxing lights Time will never touch you Here in this enchanted place
