The Match

Thereґs a room where she kept all her dolls

They covered the floor and the walls

And she talked to them there

By the pool she would always attract

All the guys who were out on their backs

With her towel rapped

Now did she know

That she caught all the eyes in town

Watching her walking around

She was the match that would strike up a light

And the day that said hi to the night

And she was bowling me down

And I was praying

As I struggled to stand on my feet

I walked tall with her there on the street

But as the earth spun around

Hope was fading

There was a room where I kept all my things

Baseball caps fraternity rings

And I played my guitar

With her picture pinned up on the wall

I stood there to see where Iґd fall

She was the match that would strike up a light

And the day that said hi to the night

And she was bowling me down

And I was praying

As I struggled to stand on my feet

I walked tall with her there on the street

But as the earth spun around

Hope was fading

In our rooms there are thoughts that divide

All those feelings that harbored inside

Am I sinking too deep with what Iґm saying

All the words they got caught in my head

Had no order in how they were said

Am I really a creep, hope is fading
