JAWBREAKER LYRICS

"Crane"

Takes a crane to pick me up
A twenty gallon coffee cup
A metal flag to move my brow
Indelible's my color now
Forever is the time it takes
To get me going. Can you wait?
I'll be along any year
Progress slowed by heightened fear

I got a broken crown
I went from king to clown
Don't think I'm down
A fool's got so much less to lose
I see your tower's tall
But tall ain't all
You can rise above
But it's that much further you must fall

Life's a race I can't run
You curse the man who fired the gun
Concrete socks and cement shoes
The race was fixed I'm gonna lose it
There's danger in a desperate man
Watch yourself I'm panicking
I know my time is almost done
It's now or never. Never comes

We're young yet
Too young to regret it
I see you play it safe
If you had a dime I bet you wouldn't bet it
Well that's cool
What's advice from a fool?
Just hear me out
This is what I'm all about

Twenty-one in need of fun. Growing old
In a band to understand a fucked up world
Twenty-two it could be through. Enlist now
No one knows where it is going, but it's up from down

Could well be I'm full of shit
Saying never guarantees it
Still I'm not some posicreep
Reality my soul do keep
Living on the brighter side
Living only half a life
I keep my feet tied to the ground
I let my head go wander 'round

I got a broken crown
I went from king to clown
Don't think I'm down
A fool's got so much less to lose
I see your tower's tall
But tall ain't all
You can rise above
But it's that much further you must fall

Twenty-one in need of fun. Growing old
In a band to understand a fucked up world
Twenty-two it could be through. Enlist now
No one knows where it is going, but it's up from down
