lyrics

Crooked lines when I try to get through to you
Crooked lines when I fight over the air with you
Learn to live in a 21st century zoo
Where crooked lines are the only thing in common with you

Through the eyes of a dead end looser
On a trip from another time
I search for life in a cold reaction
How can I walk on all of these crooked, all of these crooked lines

Crooked lines on an endless journey to nowhere
Sometimes the weight of the world becomes too much to bare
Try to run, only just to trip over you
There's crooked lines in everything you say and do

Who am I but a dead end loser
In my place on the firing line
Take my life in the latest fashion
Try to walk on all of your crooked lines
