Pendulous threads

Pendulous threads
Mend this careless thread, it´s gone askew
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)

Or pull and see how much we can undo
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
On a burning bridge, your options are minimal at best
Depending on where you´re standing
And how much breath is in your chest
If it came down to it
Would you high-tail home and hide?
Or dance on fire and enjoy the ride?
Mend this careless thread, it´s gone askew
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
Or pull and see how much we can undo
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
At the heart of it all
That innermost, your fiery core
There´s an amassing armor
It´s building you into a bore
Life´s a match in a gas tank
Don´t ever mourn the ebbing tide
Just dance on fire and enjoy the ride

Hey!
Mend this careless thread, it´s gone askew

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
Hey hey hey hey...
Hey hey hey hey...
Mend this careless thread, it´s gone askew
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
Or pull and see how much we can undo

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
