what i am listening to....

I had forgotten until recently how much I love this band.....lyrics for your enjoyment....

Jump Little Children
"Come Around"

Ceramic tile floor fluorescent
Yellow iodine
I can feel your presence
Sedated by the heavy medicine
And come around,
come around,
come around
The flowers aren't worth keeping
The roses broke my skin
I'll pretend your sleeping
Or you fainted from the lack of oxygen
And come around,
come around
Don't you leave me here to let you down
Now I'm going home
and I've been patient,
I've waited a lifetime
Now I'm going home
and I am tired
of waiting a lifetime
Sentimental letters
Brightly colored ink
Saying, "Please get better"
I'll place them by the lilies in the sink
And come around,
come around
If you could feel it, I'd give a kiss
If it would get through, I'd whisper this
Not while your sleeping...In my safe keeping...
Faded iridescence
From your silhouette
A stare illuminescent
I haven't given up on you just yet
And come around, come around
Don't you leave me here to let you down
Now I'm going home
and I've been patient,
I've waited a lifetime
Now I'm going home
and I am tired
of waiting a lifetime
