Five For Fighting - White Picket Fence Lyrics
i've cut off the curlsI shaved half my faceBecame half the man you asked to replace.I'm willing to save youYou said you're worth savingBut half of my appetite's lost half it's cravingStand in the mirrorThat's me beside youThe one with the smile, the one who abides you.Don't mind the madmanThe killer, the loverHe's slowly fading one into the other.Where is that white picket fenceThat i painted myself in the late days of april?Where are the daffodil mountians?I know that they're somewhere around here by the garden.You say that you're happyWell you should know betterI see that you've sewn up that rip in your sweaterThat some lover tore off youThat left you both shakingThat bled deep inside you the wound you'd forsakenWhere is that white picket fenceThat i painted myself in the late days of april?Where are the daffodil mountians?I know that they're somewhere around here by the garden.Don't fear i will save youDon't shout you'll awakenThe corpse in the desert staked out beside youI cut off his wingAnd shaved half his faceBut i thought that i saw his eyes...move
