You don't have to hold that old memory of you and me Up to the flame in your dream Take seventeen years off my being Few and far between Farther than I can see What to do I'm just gonna rock the shade then Oh you know me I'm just gonna rock the shade then I don't have to hold that old picket fence anymore I don't really care for keeping score I am weak therefore I am strong All our lives we spend Running from end to end It's not for me I'm just gonna rock the shade then Play this one cool I'm just gonna rock the shade then Oh you know me I'm just gonna rock the shade Probably gonna rot in the shade I divide my own self A true hallucination And I ain't asking you for your help I'll learn the rest from patience You don't have to hold that old thing I said over my head It will only add to your dread That's no good I never would Live the life you love Love the life you lead That's for me I'm just gonna rock the shade then Play this one cool I'm just gonna rock the shade Oh you know me I'm just gonna rot in the shade I would rather rot in the shade
