Deadheads

verse 1 Dark auditorium, half of the audience sleeps I am awake through every display of doubt turning the grave Pre-Chorus While you were watching the back of your eyelids I was awake verse 2 Broken and battered and split like an atom In debt to god, but what's it to you If somewhere a glass jewel breaks And rings like a bell Pre-Chorus Are you bandaging feet or done with the Peace Corps? I couldn't tell Chorus Now I'm putting drinks away Like a poet on payday And I'm not toasting your name Or your good health verse 3 When twenty years of peace Fall under the roof of love And every heart seems To beat like a broken drum Chorus Now I'm putting drinks away Like a poet on payday And I'm not toasting your name Or your good health Outro They say the thing about starts Is you're risking them finishing And a line of love Draws maps on your skin Well that's the about shoes You know some of us live in them When it's too late to want love I'll know where I've been They say the thing about starts Is they're made out of finishes And a longing of love Draws maps on your skin Well that's the about shoes You know some of us live in them When it's too late to want love I'll know where I've been (x2) I'll know where I've been
