And Now We Are Not

Do I have to be around
To hear you say:
That move is out of bounds?
I'll leave a note
And try to keep the lights down low

In the bedroom
Can it be a one-man show?
Bounce against the headboard
Both sides letting go?
As the angels fall

Up all night
Against the headboard
Up all night
Against the headboard

Everyone enabled Cain
I guess that right-side
Has-been of a brain
Will get a vote:
No confidence for all I know

In the bedroom
Can it be a one-man show?
Bounce against the headboard
Both sides letting go?
And now we are not
As the angels fall
As the boundaries call
You can be right after all

Reach around
City of Angels
Reach around
City of angels

Out of mind and out of sight
And Venice Beach
Reveals an eerie light
The bad behaviors'
Strap-on for an industry

In the bedroom
Can it be a one-man show?
Bounce against the headboard
Both sides letting go?
And now we are not
As the angels fall
As the boundaries call
You can be right after all
