cherry picker Songtext
von Heddy Edwards

Cherry picker, would you believe me?
Or do my eyes deceive me?
I don′t know what went wrong, but
I'd tell you if I could
You held the door
You let me in
Now I′m stuck

Cherry picker, what are you good for?
You can't tell me what to live for
These nights I'd thrive and die by
You′re here but I still can′t see past the knife
You held my hand
Then you left

You changed my mind (you changed my mind)
And you, in the nick of time

I would pack my bags and drive down the I-95
Tell you I love you just one more time
When I'm feeling fine


Cherry picker, could you receive me?
Arms wide, bursting July red
I′ve had some trouble here
Learning how to bury the dead
I kicked the dirt
I dug the graves
Then the world caved

Cherry picker
Are you deep inside?
From this darkness I can't hide
I followed all the rules, still this feeling I can′t fight
I want to scream
I want to run
I want to feel that summer sun

'Cause you didn′t hear me when I called out your name
What am I supposed to do with all this shame?
Will I ever be the same?

'Cause we made a promise, our fingers we crossed them tight
You stood right next to me, my comrade every fight
Now I'm grasping for your light

′Cause I didn′t tell you all this things I hold on to
I think of you and everything it fades in view

'Cause you plucked me from the sky
When you breathed it gave me life
Now I don′t know what's right
When just being alive means sacrifice


Cherry picker, would you believe me?
Or do my eyes deceive me?
I don′t know what went wrong, but
I'd tell you if I could

You held the door
You let me in
Now I′m stuck
