lyrics

Doorstep

I got devil on my doorstep that would like to buy
I told her once but still she feels the need to try
When I see her there it seems to be so hard
But she don’t have a choice, it’s her only job

Please just let me be, more than sitting on a shelf
I want to be, unlike everybody else
Please let me be, somewhere other than here
I want to go, to where the air is so clear, air is so clear

I got a devil on my doorstep that would like to sell
I told her twice cause I know the supplier’s straight from hell
And when she’s forced to look into my lonely eyes
She doesn’t know whom she’s dealing with
Read between the lines

Please just let me be, more than sitting on a shelf
I want to be, unlike everybody else
Please let me be, somewhere other than here
I want to go, to where the air is so clear,
Where everybody hears the sound of the tears
Falling down, from all the years we have spun around

But I got a devil on my doorstep that would like to trade
I’ve told her three times and now her only hopes to beg
She smiles as a means to hide the pain she feels
Like a crash test dummy stuck behind the wheel
Please just let me be
