Explain It Away

High Holy Days

Light the signal fire

I said I'm coming home

I don't remember if I had something here

Or I can't complain about it

I got a piece of perfect

Always on my mind I see her now

And I don't know if it's that

I don't care or she won't care



Explain away and I do

The picture perfect thing

I would light the time

I could mean so much to you

Explain away and you do

The picture perfect dream

Lies and reasons hide

What it is you mean to me



Who she really is

I forgot to check this time

I got to be obtrusive

It's my life to be hung up about it

And maybe she'll be happy

If I breach the walls around her

And I don't know if it's that

I don't care or she won't care



CHORUS



So don't complain to me

It's you you really want to talk to

I got ideas to lend

But I'm afraid the cost to reach you

One look reality

And here I am to heal your pieces

And all there is to do today

Is start for perfect endings
