What's Your Virtue?

Aching for something to slow down

This desperate running out of time

Where time's a wreck

Falling through emotions

With too much catching up to do

Please believe



Me bitterness is not my only virtue

One of two

But you knew that, didn't you



There are moments of good endings

But far too few

Let's take our bicycles and ride

I'm sticking with you



I've read between the lines

Far too long, it's not paying off

The substance is gone

Your luck came to an abrupt end

Well, so did mine at the age of nine

Please forgive me



Bitterness is not my only virtue

One of two

But you knew that, didn't you



There are moments of good endings

But far too few

Let's take our bicycles and ride

Like good friends do

There are moments of good endings

But far too few

Let's take our bicycles and ride

It's up to you



Something was wrong at an early age

So little a creature

But consumed by uncontrollable rage



Born with teeth

And a thorn in everybody's side



Line 'em up and roll 'em in

Everybody with a glass chin

No one's gonna run me out

But everybody ran me out



As a sucker for the D.I.Y. concept

I went to your show last night

Your gang was trashing the stage

And you had the starglimpse in your eye



But I'm sad to say: your ways

Will never make your records sell



They'll line you up and roll you in

Everybody with a glass chin everything will run you out

And I'm a living proof of that



Born with teeth

And a thorn in everybody's side



Line 'em up and roll 'em in

Everybody with a glass chin

No one's gonna run me out

But everybody ran me out
