Set The Twilight Reeling Lyrics - 1996
I met a new me at 8 am, the other one got lost
This was not a trade in, although i wouldn't believe the cost
I woke up crying as we said goodbye
Me an my old self, each day he vanished more and more
As i became someone else
He actually was murdered i had taken him apart
But when i put him back together, i couldn't find his heart
It was resting underneath a chair, in a bed of bright tin foil
If i pulled back the flaps, i could still see it beat
I could still hear his voice uncoil, as i said :
I want a trade in, a 14th chance at this life
I've met a woman with a thousand faces
And i want to make her my wife
How could i have been so mistaken, how could i think that it was true
A child that is raised by an idiot, and that idiot then becomes you
How could i believe in a movie, how could i believe in a book
But most of all how could i listen to you, such an obvious schmuck
A life spent listening to assholes, it's funny but it's true
So get rid of them i said to myself
But first i'm getting rid of you
I want a trade in, a 14th chance at this life
I've met a woman with a thousand faces
And i want to make her my wife
Take me over to the window, my heart said to my head
Please set me on fine, so we can start again
I was so wrong that it's funny, and i can't apologize
But instead you can be everything that i'm not, the second that i die
Ooohhh, i want a trade in, the second chance at this life
I've met a woman with a thousand faces
And i want to make her my wife
Ha!
A 14th chance at this life, i want a trade in ...
... i said ... uuuhhh, 14th, 14th chance at this life
