I Want to be a Tin Man

New song...nuff said...

TIN MAN

I don't like to think about getting old and gray
I like things just the way they are today
Mirror, mirror tell me please, will I always have to take the bus?
Up, up and away, leaving me behind to
CRY!

I want to...to blame you
But I know better my dear
I have to blame my heart
It's faulty- can you fix it?
Well, then, just toss it
I don't want it
if it might break again.

Something old and something new doesn't have much to do with you
Or does it?
You inhaled my very soul then you turned to go
Kicking up the dirt into my
EYES!

I want to...to tie you up and slap you
till you get it, my dear
I want to...to punch out random people
people on the street
I want to, I want to...

I want to be a tin man now
No heart and no feelings
I want to be a tin man now
All that metal will protect me from your touch
Your soft touch

By this point I bet you think I'm strange
Those who thought they knew me, like Mr. Strange.
But I'm stranger than him
I'm STRANGE! I'm strange! I'm strange! I'm strange!

I want to be a tin man now.
No heart and no feelings
I want to be a tin man now
All that metal will protect me
I want to be a tin man now
All that metal will protect me from your arms
Your warm arms

I want to be a tin man now
No heart, no feelings
I want to be a tin man now
Your kiss on my cold tin lips
will rust them shut
My cold lips
Will stay shut
