[Verse 1: Stephan Jenkins]
I close my eyes and I see a freak
I think it's me and I'm afraid to speak
I keep on going from weak to weakness
Way out in a line
I dream of lives we could have had before
The heat is broke down, open doorways
Friends of yours, tell me more
What happens in your mind?
Oh
[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
Can we try and take the high road?
Though we don't know where it ends
I want to be your crystal baller
I want to show you how it ends
[Verse 2: Stephan Jenkins]
Macramé queens in the afternoon
And I'm in tune or did I speak too soon?
Punch drunk on somebody's joke
What happened to the time?
A footnote in your dance of days
In my mind, that record still plays
Still wonder what the fuck it says
Hoping there is time
[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
Can we try and take the high road?
Though we don't know where it ends
I want to be your crystal baller
I can show you how it ends
Can we talk about tomorrow?
And the promise that it brings
I want to be your crystal baller
I want to show you everything
[Bridge: Stephan Jenkins]
I wonder what the whole thing's for
I wonder what the whole thing's for
In the moment you were screaming at me
I must've been somebody else
And the patrons of the pub keep singing
Macramé queens in the afternoon
And I'm in tune or did I speak too soon?
Punch drunk on somebody's joke
What happened to the time?
I dream of lives we could have had before
Where the heat is broke down, open doorways
Like waiting for a trick to score, it seems that way sometimes
I wonder where we're all going, homesick for your primal knowing
I wonder why the wind keeps blowing you through my mind
[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
Try and take the high road
Remember we were friends
I want to be your crystal baller
I want to be your diamond ring
The one I never gave you
And the promise that it brings
Let me be your crystal baller
I will show you everything
I'll be your crystal baller
Crystal baller
Be your crystal baller
Crystal baller
I close my eyes and I see a freak
I think it's me and I'm afraid to speak
I keep on going from weak to weakness
Way out in a line
I dream of lives we could have had before
The heat is broke down, open doorways
Friends of yours, tell me more
What happens in your mind?
Oh
[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
Can we try and take the high road?
Though we don't know where it ends
I want to be your crystal baller
I want to show you how it ends
[Verse 2: Stephan Jenkins]
Macramé queens in the afternoon
And I'm in tune or did I speak too soon?
Punch drunk on somebody's joke
What happened to the time?
A footnote in your dance of days
In my mind, that record still plays
Still wonder what the fuck it says
Hoping there is time
[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
Can we try and take the high road?
Though we don't know where it ends
I want to be your crystal baller
I can show you how it ends
Can we talk about tomorrow?
And the promise that it brings
I want to be your crystal baller
I want to show you everything
[Bridge: Stephan Jenkins]
I wonder what the whole thing's for
I wonder what the whole thing's for
In the moment you were screaming at me

I will show you everything
I'll be your crystal baller
Crystal baller
Be your crystal baller
