There's a tranny watching me
On the corner of this goddamned street
The window's haunted face
Don't understand the language in this place
Oh, the circus arrived
But the tent was broken
Elephant screams
The performance was fine
But the rain got in
The room unseen
Your heart's beating
Like rolling thunder
Is it any wonder?
And here's where I get off
A bus stop without a shelter
Strange shapes stalking me
I lean to the right when I'm walking
More walls, these heads, they promised me
I've seen that before
White lies, white lies, I suppose
They tell so many
Your heart is quiet
Like distant thunder
Is it any wonder?
Your pounding heart is drowning out the rain
The stones are cracked on Memory Lane
Your pounding heart is drowning out the rain
Oh, memory
These words, they are my last
Don't pay me any mind that time has past
From their mistakes
I only learned that hearts cannot break
Don't go, don't go
That's what they want
Stamp my paper, please
Please stay, can't stay
They will find you
They'll find you anyway
And in the dark
Together we'll go under
Is it any wonder?
Your pounding heart is drowning out the rain
Oh, memory
Oh, memory
