Lyrics
I've benn fighting with the floor again
Don't know if I'll ever win
It faught me like a trampoline
All the matches and the gasoline
I was walking on a tight rope
I was wondering if hope floats
I was walking down on back streets
I was left there in the back seat
Curtain calls from a pay phone
Trouble always finds it's way home
You can find without the lights on
You can find it with the curtains drawn
But you knocked me out and you never let me in
But when I come to, I'm coming for you again
I was waiting for the big fall
It hit like a cannonball
Everything was falling apart
Up and down along the boulevard
Breaker breaker yeah I heard your call
A laundry list of all my faults
I was running about an hour behind
I lost you in central standard time
But you knocked me out and you never let me in
But when I come to, I'm coming for you again
