Action Fans Help Us! Songtext
von Paris, Texas

are you ready to jump
well so am i
are you ready i′m not ready
because we all need a push sometimes
well i don't have wings but we′re flying just the same
i'm looking down as you're looking up
watch me come from above
as you say after afternoons of alcohol
i fell right off the front porch the start of it all
as jack came out he asked can cans get crushed by one hand
hush here come the cops and if they hear us they′ll see us
and then we′ll have to run
because he's too young barely nineteen
and we′ve been there we've all been green
just like the stains that cover our blue jeans
underneath a bush like i′m a city stray
you give me a push and you say why be safe
i've got the rest of my life to spend some time on my knees


and just wait for death to come to me
are you ready
we all need a push sometimes or a shove
running through the streets drunk
keep your feet two feet above the cracked concrete
and it′s cracked by a question
can hearts get crushed and ground to dust enough to disappear
now hold my hand
we'll act as light as air gets cold
as the night gets old and lungs start to decay
i'm sick and tired of just running away
and i see that you′re safe in some alleyway
i raise my arms and say hey look this way
i′ve got the rest of my life to spend some time on my knees
so just come on come on come on to me
are you ready
we all need a push sometimes or a shove now
