What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I have this problem where I'm already measuring how you'll react
2
Before I even finish what I was gonna say
3
I dance around my thoughts like they're a fire
4
And if I order my steps in just the right sequence I could make it rain
5
And it isn't a joke, or some poem I wrote
6
It's the shadow tracing back to every word I spoke
7
Burn brighter, if you can't fix the house that you were born into
8
Well, put a match to work and see what fire can do
9
Cut cleaner, if the hanging fray causes you to cling to the old
10
ways and means and methods then the knife was too dull
11
And so the lesson becomes how you fix a problem
12
Can yield a grimmer consequence than what you kept from
13
I have found this
14
I have found this
15
A full measure shaken down, spilled over was the cup I had drawn
16
Took me one little tumble and the thing was half gone
17
Half-full is a fool's assessment when the ledger is red
18
And the deficit is only ever making ahead
19
And though a slow motion spill looks real cool in a film
20
In either case the result is typically a mess
21
I have found this
22
My soul held a measure and the ledger was null
23
My feet found a dry place to count in the cold
24
It's all coming due now
25
I felt my sorrow pulling in on the fabric of days
26
All of time bunched up, converging like a senator's blade
27
And my mind raced over all of everything that happened then
28
But it halted at the thought of things about to begin
29
'Cause my mind held a ledger and my credits were full
30
When my feet set to walking out all too alone
31
And my heart held a ledger and my credits were full
32
When my feet found a soapbox to stand in the cold
33
Now how about one goes on one's own
34
Saying "hey babe, this place ain't so cold"
35
Well don't you know, there's only one of ya
36
You just might end up with pneumonia
37
And about how one might slow one's roll
38
To an amount down to faking control
39
Well I guess that would depend on it
40
The kind of time you want to spend on it
41
Stand-offing often pays off, but I am pondering well
42
Might be stepping down wasn't really so low
43
When my feet found a soapbox to stand in the cold
44
And my lungs were full
45
Praise be to the father forever
46
Who can take a dead thing and make it green
47
Only ever restoring
48
My soul held a ledger and he paid it in full
49
When my root was a dead snag left in the cold
50
Then the drums kicked in
51
And I was spilling out some feverish thing
52
But the amps were cranked up so loud
53
Well, I didn't think you'd hear
54
How about them something or others I had seemed to say
55
Well maybe listen closer and I'll try to sing clear
56
My tongue held a ledger and my credits were full
57
When my feet found a soapbox to stand in the cold
58
My tongue held a ledger and my credits were full
59
Consequences of grandstanding in the cold
60
And when it comes to gallows humor it's a slippery slope
61
You see you never ask a hangman to show you the ropes
62
I know you meant it as a "ha ha ha"
63
You just might end up with a twiney collar
64
Now about how one goes on one's own
65
Saying "hey babe, this place ain't so cold"
66
Well don't you know there's only one of ya
67
You'll only end up with pneumonia
