News from home comes here
I heard you got a deal
It's very very hard to be happy for you

Your life is high and soft
My life is what I got
In the dawn
In the long run

I was the kid with the huge dreams
The flying to the moon dreams
There I was in the private dark
Of my big brother's borrowed car
I was crying on a dying phone
Dialing everyone I know
Asking them what to do
But they're lost too

I don't see you in the clubs no more
You've ascended through the boardroom door
They'll out your head on the bow of a ship
Your songs on every lip
You're always hatching golden eggs
Unfolding golden wings from your shoulder blades
I put fishnets on my legs
My shoulders bear weight

Your life is high and soft
My life is what I got
I won't give it up
Not for you
And what you got
