i knocked on the door of boo radley
no kiss or hug presented me
quick panic and slow words
makes me hollow to feel anything

and you try not be get upset
rewind, configure on what you said
but you can't, no you can't understand
and you wish it would all just stop
collect the past and turn into dust
but you can't, no you can't understand

Ah-ah-ah- ah ah
ah ah ah...

i wish i could bite my tongue
stop messing up
i wish i was strong as steel
and learn to be patient and wise

but enough is just not enough
when you are born to a family of roughs
and you slant, you start to slant off the edge
you try not to get upset
but you break and bust up your glass fingers again
no, you can't, no you can't understand
Ah-ah-ah- ah ah
ah ah ah...
