Текст песни Mae - Nightmare and the Cat

Mae, oh Mae, may I please be excused?
I cannot stay, this place is a hospice for the used.
You must not follow where I go, my love
You do not want to know where I must go.

The rain, the rain, a welcomed change
From desert days.
My face, a torn out page
From the book that we did write
So won't you read to me tonight?
And I'll just keep pretending that I never heard the end and I'll buy it.

Mae.
We always got time, we always got time.

To play this game, you've gotta have a taste for human waste.
The shame, hide the pain upon your face.
Do not feel you have succumbed to the pressures of the gun
That is hanging off your waist.

Cuz Mae, you do not know how many nights
I laid awake, and prayed you wouldn't see me in the light.
In the heart of every man there's an evacuation plan.
We all must be set free, my darlin' Mae.

Mae.
We always got time, we always got time.
Mae.
We always got time, we always got time.
Mae.
We always got time, we always got time.
Mae.
We always got time, we always got time.

Well today, I was sitting in dirt thinking of
Your friend who got here, didn't come
To see if you were okay.

I said, "Mae, was I going too fast?"
I would wait, if I thought it would last.
Would you stay?
What is on your heart, Mae?

Cuz the pictures, hanging off my shelf
In the background, you were somebody else.
But here now, if you wanna talk again.

I said, "Mae, was I going too fast?"
I would wait, if I thought it would last.
Would you stay?
What is on your heart, Mae?

We were children, singing la la love you.
In the bathroom, rolling on the floor.
And the rhythm, is still pounding in my head.
