Pleased to meet you and say, don't you look fine?
All dressed up like wine
I'm so sorry but I missed your name
"Virginia," she said, "and don't worry, don't mind
You see I believe you're all really nothing like me"
"I'll be free soon," she said, "I'm gonna fly
From here to my greatest of freedoms
Somewhere out there
Try if you can to imagine me there
And would you go too?
See I'm really nothing like you"
I wish you'd see it
(It's not easy to do)
Between all these lines
(Give it time)
One after one we're all so sorry
(Would you forgive?)
And pathetically fine
(Do you mind?)
But I wanna live and I wanna give
And I wanna run through the streets of this God forsaken town
With a sign so loud that says, "Wake up!"
Say to me something that makes me sit up
Show me the laws on the floor that you've ripped up
Tell me why I shouldn't leave here my friend
Because I am not gonna stay
