History sits in a chair at the table listening to everything I have to say
She doesn't know that I long to be able to follow danger to go astray
And I am an actor she is the audience, I am a legend in my own mind
Everything I can't say is irrelevant ? Everything I don't have, mine this time
History sits on a bench in the garden watching the children picking the flowers
She doesn't that I long to be able to possess ancient magical powers
And I am an actor she is the audience, I am a legend in my own mind
Everything I can't say is irrelevant ? Everything I don't have, mine this time
There's a mouse that's trapped in the wall by the kitchen and it
Keeps me up in the middle of the night and it's
Clawing its way to freedom ? putting up a very impressive fight
Oh to be a creature so small, oh to have the dignity to know
There must be a way out of this if I just find the right tunnel
Take me down to the fire breathing waterbed
Tie me up with imaginary string and
Calm my nerves by pretending to be soothing, soothing
History sits in a chair at the table listening to everything I have to say
She doesn't know that I long to be able to follow danger to go astray
And I am an actor she is the audience, I am a legend in my own mind
Everything I can't say is irrelevant ? Everything I don't have, mine this time
This time it's gonna be different ? I'm gonna start telling you the truth
I'll give you my word as, my word as
I am an actor she is the audience, she is the audience, she is the audience
