Lyrics

She brings her friends so we won’t have to be alone
I fear I might lose composure without warning
I am a child of fire, I am a lion
I have desires and I was born inside the sun this morning
This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time
This dizzy life is just a hanging tree
This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time
This dizzy life is just a hanging tree
They say good evening when they don’t know what to say
They say good morning when they wish you would go home
You open windows and you wait for someone warm to come inside
And then freeze to death alone
This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time
This dizzy life is just a hanging tree
This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time
This dizzy life is just a hanging tree for me She calls the waitress when it’s time for her to go And I know everyone’s eventually leaving
I got a pair of wings for my birthday, baby
And I will fall down through the sun this evening
This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time
This dizzy life is just a hanging tree
This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time
This dizzy life is just a hanging tree for me For me, for me, for me, for me This dizzy life is just a hanging tree for me Hey, this dizzy life is just a hanging tree for me, f-f-for me This dizzy life is just a hanging tree for me For me, for me, for me, for me This dizzy life is just a hanging tree for me
