She brings a friend so we won’t have to be alone

I fear I might lose my composure without warning

I am a child of fire

I am a lion

I have desires

And I was born inside the sun this morning

This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time

This dizzy life is just a hanging tree

They say “Good evening”

When they don’t know what to say

They say “Good morning”

When they wish you would go home

You open windows

And you wait for someone warm to come inside

And then you freeze to death alone

This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time

This dizzy life is just a hanging tree

For me

She calls a waitress when it’s time for her to go

And I know everyone’s eventually leaving

I got a pair of wings for my birthday, baby

And I will fall down through the sun this evening

This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time

This dizzy life is just a hanging tree

For me
