Shrinking Heads In The Sunset - Elysian Fields

Well you’re caught in the headlights

Don’t know which way to turn

And you’re going down quickly

With my silencer

I commandeer your heart

And it’s making you mad

It’s dissolving your cool resolve

Though you haven’t been had

Don’t you wish you were

Tired of retiring in your mousetrap mind

Don’t you wish you were

Making it through the moment

When you were my kind

Had a look at your soul

And it caught you off guard

And you can never take that back

And it’s making it hard

Oh you wish you could hate me

But it’s not in your nature

You’d rather debate me

And to me that’s absurd

Don’t you wish you were

Tired of conspiring with your mousetrap mind

Don’t you wish you were

Making it through the moment

When you were my kind

Don’t you wish you were

Drinking up all your doing

So you could crawl right back

Don’t you wish you were

Shrinking heads in the sunset

You old sad sack

Bite down man, be strong

We’re all impressed

The way you hold your breath so long

In time you’ll turn blue

Won’t be the only one who’s really seeing you

Conspiring with your mousetrap mind

Don’t you wish you were

Making it through the moment

When you were my kind

Don’t you wish you were

Drinking up all your doing

So you could crawl right back

Don’t you wish you were

Shrinking heads in the sunset

You old sad sack

Don’t you wish you were

Making it through

The moment

The moment
