It's not yet 6 The sun's not up And father take away this cup is running through my throbbing head Because if he had I'd be dead Feeling like I'm feeling now In between the skies and clouds Where everyone's identity is just a picture card they need I came from California with an appetite for my own myths Of music, love, and what they mean I'm told it's borderline obscene I tried to write this song before But had no one to write it for My fellow travelers vacant stares leave it up for you to care I could write a song and have the Lord put you and me in a cup he tries to pour out Looking in at the passengers from the wing I'm nowhere and you're everything You came from Illinois with a cup of your very own to sip Never on route for very long Just there and doing something wrong Or so your friends and parents said But if you hadn't you'd be dead What you've been given doesn't scare me All your sights and sounds prepare me I could write a song and have the Lord put you and me in a cup he tries to pour out Looking in at the passengers from the wing I'm nowhere and you're everything Damn this cup Bring me a bowl If I can't saturate my soul With you and him who drank it first And last I'm ready for the worst It's way past two and you want me there Well he needs me here So you have to share I'm crying 'cause I'm in love with you You're crying because you have no clue I could write a song and have the Lord put you and me in a cup he tries to pour out Looking in at the passengers from the wing I'm nowhere and you're everything
