Myth of the Cat

by dreamcars

/
1.
Time is a steady stream if you sit down and think about it I was pissing in a funeral home while you waited for me And I was drawing lines up and down my arms Like a little kid, oh boy! But nowadays I don’t hesitate for joy Our lives are parallel lines have you ever thought about that? I was pissing in a funeral home while you lived your life And I was making marks ups and down my arms What are awful time, oh boy! Nowadays I don’t hesitate for joy
2.
Oh I ain’t playing dumb - true love Thumbs out on the corner of life - true love Well I’m thinking fast and acting slow True love don’t go for that anymore Shout out to the thoughtful hearts I’m cracking up, not fading away I’m holding out for that doomsday Miss lonelyhearts, you held my hand, near the back of the book Doomsday, maybe next year baby Pick up another paperback - true love You wrote a poem in the back of my book - true love Well I’ve thought too fast and acted slow True love don’t go for that anymore Making love to the thoughtful heart
3.
Laying like a saint, staying up well too late And you’re on my mind, take me back to another time Putting on, too far, these games you play with me Oh you’re taking me back to places I don’t ever want to be All laid up in another room, but yeah you’re on my mind Pick me up or give me ring, I’ll be there anytime That poor little girl, oh so stuck up in her world Then I’m back to cold, I get scared like that Take me back or you’re on your own With friends like these, I don’t ever want to go home Take me back or just speed away I’ll hold my own Three words you never want to say

Heart Attack 03:05
Listen up when I wrote this song, I wrote it just for you Jagged edge on the softest son, the fucked up things you do I gotta say when it feels just right it fits just like a glove Silly stuff, damaged bruf, the things I’ve done for your love And I can’t tell just what you’re playing at Your last text done gave me a heart attack Silly words that all mixed up just like my funny friend I don’t want to wake up tomorrow and find you’ve left Can’t you see all I wanna do is what’s best for you It’s mighty hard when you’re acting tough and just passing through
6.
Young hearts don’t fear to feel the sting of sadness in their eyes But I gotta turn away when I’m talking with you Don’t wanna feel the sting of sadness in my art / heart no more Yeah I guess I gotta break it off Hearts aching, I’m breaking loose Don’t wanna be a sad satellite Don’t wanna be a satellite no more
7.
You can’t see me anymore, I’m the myth of the cat Running around chasing tail in the alley Tears may fall but they won’t flood the Serengeti Not like they did before You can’t see what’s inside for the smoke in your eyes
8.
Return to the mother house and let my pale face shine Under suburban skies On park benches you shared your fire On park benches you shared your light with me But what type of life is this when your heart firms like a fist? Return to the mother light Lay my face on parallax lines Your unmade plans under moonlight, be free’d! Return to the mother house and let my pale face shine Under suburban skies On park benches we closed our eyes And laid my face on parallax lines Your shared your fire under moonlight On park benches you shared your fire with me

Shadows 02:44
It’s another love song darling And I hope that you’re not sick of it It’s another love gone wrong and I don't mind a bit You said that it wouldn’t last, and it didn't Who was that that I loved before? Was she some kind of animal? Or was she my shadow? I suppose that I’ll never know Well I hope you find what I left behind On your pillow last night First our minds, and then our will And finally in our lives But who was that that I was before? Was that some kind of animal? Or was that my shadow? I suppose that I’ll never know

After what you did to me I ain’t feeling too well Oh don’t get me started, I don’t feel too swell After what you said to me I ain’t feeling strong I’ll probably feel a whole lot better when I’m heading home Yeah I’ll probably feel whole a lot better when I’m gone After what you started I ain’t feeling too right All broken hearted all electric light After what you said to me I ain’t feeling strong I’ll probably feel a whole lot better when I’m heading home Yeah I’ll probably feel a lot better when I’m gone
12.
Any man who hold your hand you wanna bang bang, give it away You ought to save your heart for that special one, don’t just give it up And any girl in your world you wanna bang bang, give it away You better save your heart for that special one, don’t just give it up I can tell your age by the lines in your face and I won’t hold my breath for you to change Any girl who rocks your world you wanna bang bang, give it away You ought to save your heart for that special one, don’t just give it up And any man who meets your dad you wanna bang bang, give it away You gotta save your heart for that special one, don’t just give it up
13.
Making love in uncommon times Well I’m just a common fool for you Baby, I never met a girl like you Making time for a hanging around I don’t care what we do Cause baby, I never met a girl like you Making love to uncommon cool But I’m losing sleep and killing time for you Laughing at them old jokes yeah you’re Making time to act the fool Baby, I never met a girl like you
14.
You caught me falling under your spell You gotta walk like water and I can tell You are a kind of father to my inner child You’re European, you know me well You are a glass of water and I can tell You oughta fall to pieces, fall to pieces on my dirty floor I got to know your face, kinder than your brain Wiser to stay away, tonight
