| You were alone when you came in 
You'll be alone when you leave again 
And in the middle there's nothing 
That can keep you around when it's time to go home 
Because everybody I lean on 
(Since I don't trust myself) 
Leans on someone else 
Watch the colonies collapse like dominoes 
I could beg and I could plead 
But all I hear is the echo of my own voice begging me 
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic wasteland 
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic wasteland 
I crawled on hands and knees just to be there with you 
And you moved on without me 
Scrap the crown, clear the slate 
Cut off you roots, you're on your own 
Scrap the crown, clear the slate 
Cut off you roots, you're on your own 
We all need something 
I'm a gypsy queen 
Without a swarm 
And the burning bridges keep me warm 
I'm a new wave 
In a dried up stream 
I'm just trying to find my way out to the sea 
You were alone when you came here 
You'll be alone when you leave again 
And in the middle there's nothing 
That can keep you around when it's time to go home 
Because everybody I lean on 
(Since I don't trust myself) 
Leans on someone else 
Watch the colonies collapse like dominoes 
I could beg and I could plead 
But all I hear is the echo of my own voice begging me 
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic waste 
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic waste 
Crush your allies 
Crush your allies
