[bodytext] => A Fragile Two Step was all we had Action, Reaction Slowly counter me with overused anticdotes I've hid under my covers since first love in hopes the sun won't rise again. Laugh it off? I try it's only a game we play But now even the ocean seems smaller to me The old streets don't hold the near nastalgia The brown faces now see me at loss in a crowd. Action, Reaction Keeping playing my two favorites notes over again until they drown into the night. Always salt in my wounds Always second hand smoke you are Never too tired to kick me when I'm down The dirty street a decrebid bench an unfullfilled promise a horrible wretch in a city where sleeping is all too highty-tighty for your flighty nites. Where cigarettes and coffee are perfumes in the air, Where last lovers letters we're tossed out with a care, of sympathetic sympathy and nostalgic dispair, I'm but a worn sneaker tired out from it's wear, tossed out in the cold unto a world that's not fair. Action, Reaction A Two Step we had We'd float with the weather We'd scream when we're sad We'd dance like the moments would keep breathing on In a wicked cold autumn we n'er got along To fight the good fight, to sing our last song I prayed for April to carry me on.
