Caroline's Spine – Unglued lyrics

I could have died, maybe I should have died
When I saw you walk inside
And as you shut the door I put my eye back on the floor
When all I really wanted was to look some more
Does a wallflower play or does a wallflower stay on his wall?

You see, I live alone, but I've made my happy home
All my furniture is centered around my phone
And I'm waiting for a call, my imaginary friends and all
Those who would never let me be taken by the fall
Does a wallflower know when it's time he outgrow his wall?
Tell me does a wallflower know when it's about time he outgrow his wall?
Yeah, his wall

Time and time and time and time and time and only time
Has feeling for me
Maybe, maybe father time will feel sorry for me
I knew, I knew when there was a time when I knew it all
Why don't I ever leave my wall?
Why don't I ever leave my wall?
...I don't ever leave my wall.

You know that siren's getting louder
And these people are starting to crowd in on me
All I smell and taste is garlic and gun powder
'Cause I shot the bad guy dead, but he got me in the head
With the girl of my dreams, she's mentioning to me how much I've bled

Where do the wallflower go
When their flowers get pulled from this wall?
Oh, and though she says I'm brave and bold,
She knows a flower cannot hold up a wall
I can't hold up this wall any longer
Oh, any longer
'Cause all I have is time and time and time
My only friend time and time, please some more time
I think I'm over...
