Agnes

Agnes, just stop and think a minute
Why don't you light that cigarette? And
Calm down now, stop and breathe a second
Go back to the very beginning
Can't you see what was different then?
You were just poppin' Percocet
Maybe just for a week at best
Maybe a smoke to clear the head

Your head is so numb
That nervous breath you try to hide
Between the motions
That trembling tender little sigh
And so it goes
A choking rose back
To be reborn
I wanna hold you like you're mine
(I wanna hold you like you're mine)

You see the sad in everything
A genius of love and loneliness, and
This time, you overdid the liquor
This time, you pulled the fucking trigger
These days, you're rolling all the time
So low, so you keep getting high
Where went that cheeky friend of mine?
Where went that billion-dollar smile?

Guess life is long
When soaked in sadness
On borrowed time
From Mr. Magnus
And so it goes
A choking rose back
To be reborn
I wanna hold you like you're mine

You're gone but you're on my mind
I'm lost but I don't know why
You're gone but you're on my mind
I'm lost but I don't know why
You're gone but you're on my mind
I'm lost but I don't know why
You're gone but you're on my mind
I'm lost but I don't know why
