You said you couldn't help yourself That you were gonna have to take me apart I told you that I wasn't scared But I was up inside my head while You were riffling through my heart Sometimes, when you're in suspense Oh you're really gonna swing But you need not look for further evidence When you are dangling from a string I told you I would protect you Before I blacked out in fear And then awoke in your arms You said you would swallow me whole But you were trapped inside the belly Of a beast with many charms Now we both crave solace and Misery loves company But how will we ever Get through this world together On these upended feet? (chorus) Hanging upside down 'Tis the cards that brought us here to drown In the wind and the mist And the touch and the kiss of destiny Hanging upside down We may never again touch the ground Let us cling together and stare at the stars From the depths of the sea I thought that I was so smart Because I never missed an opportunity To take advantage of an angel Because everyone knows that angels Have no memory Oh so many hungers that I had submitted to But ever since you swung into my dreams All my memories are inside you (chorus)
