Lyrics
Poison
Picking Time
(©
2007 the matthew show)
If I were a ghost of all the things
I tell you
Would you run, seek the higher ground
If I were lost, more lost than when I found you
Should I go, try to find the path again
Fly around inside
Windows look like sky
You know it’s alright
You know it’s okay
Live like you’ll die someday
If I made time the way I make my music
Would you smile more often than you do
If I smiled for once without reservation
I doubt there’d be a thing we couldn’t do
I curse the dashboard light
Home late another night
You know it’s alright
You know it’s okay
Live like you’ll die someday
They never wonder
They never question
They march crying past the grave
And I want to feel loved without feeling
old
I want to feel the wind blow through my soul
I want to love you for the rest of my life
And I wish that life weren’t dying
Dying, dying on the vine
Well, they say it’s alright
You don’t get a life without pain
I can’t deny that
But all I wonder
When it’s poison-picking time
Which one is mine
You know it’s alright
You know it’s okay
Live like you’ll die someday
And maybe one day
And maybe sometime soon
We can be happy again
