lyrics

It was so cold that night, and I couldn't see anything but stars cold and lonely like me.

Lost in the world without a friend, I sat there for a time.
A wet bench at 2 a.m and I fractured my mind.

(It's so cool.)
Helen of Troy I don't wanna destroy or war with myself.
Gotta get with it, gotta get with it.
Gotta get a peek through the looking glass
I'm a white sheet floating on a sea of grass, under serpentine clouds.

It was so dark that night.
We're so cool.

And everything was in its place.
(And it's so cool, we're so cool)
And everything was in its proper place, a hole for every man.

Wanna wash the pain in the sweet summer rain
I wanna see the light of a new day, gotta keep knocking on doors.
So maybe I can find my way.
And I don't need to roam through the circlin'(7x) miles.
Or just incredulous smiles
and the strange faces
they seem to be happy to see me.

Love's a distant strange, and I know I'll never change her.
I know I'll never change her, I know I'll never change her no.

I'm a Trojan soldier (it's so cool) moving to my end (It's so cool).
Gotta with it (it's so cool) Pale Horse (your so cool)
Gotta get with it, anything.
My kingdom, my kingdom, my kingdom for some horse.
Failed host, a shell with a slacker ghost you got no host you got no owner.

Looking for a dream maybe I'd be so much bolder.
I never had a chance, I never had a chance, I never had a chance, never had a chance.

White sheet floating on a sea of grass.
