You wish you were stronger
You'd learn to love to be alone
You're always running into the arms of disaster

You wish you were smarter
You'd sink your hopes with a stone
You're always running into the arms of desire

If I could change it all I would
But I can't
Heal the hurt that weighs you down
But I can't
Make some sense out of this world
But I can't

We used to dream
We'd somehow always
Land on our feet
Despite all the distance
No matter the tension
Like cats entwined in heat

Maybe I waited far too long
Maybe I waded far too deep
Maybe I waited far too long
Waiting for the nights to right the
I wish I was crueler
I'd slash the throat of my god
'Cause I'm always running into the arms of disaster

I wish I was colder
I'd shiv myself in the yard
'Cause I'm always running into the arms of desire

If I could change it all I would
But I can't
Heal the hurt that keeps us bound
But I can't
Make some sense out of this crazy world
But I can't

We used to dream
We'd somehow always
Land on our feet
Despite all the distance
No matter the tension
Like cats entwined in heat

We used to dream
We'd somehow always
Land on our feet
Maybe I waited far too long
Maybe I waded far too deep
Maybe I waited far too long
Waiting for the night to right the--

If I could change it all I would
