DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL LYRICS"I Need A Sure Thing"You are a razor bladeYou are precision-cut You are a stare sharp as the tack in my eye? At rest in my veins [Your pulse in my neck?] As sharp-edged as questions the time I have left And so you are on my mind. I need a burning stake I need a piercing dart I need something as hot as it is sharp And I need to bleed I need to burn I need a sure thing I need a sure thing And you are a mystery to me You are a paper bird Folded and folded and creased And bent and shaped from a five dollar bill It's priceless to me And never spent It hangs from a ceiling fan over my bed And so you are on my mind I need a burning stake I need a piercing dart I need something as hot as it is sharp And I need to bleed I need to burn I need a sure thing And you are a mystery to me I'll hang my hopes all at once on a rope There's a possibility that this is happening to someone who's not me I'll hold my head Keep it still and pretend That these spins and the webs Are actually desirable I need a burning stake I need a piercing dart I need something as hot as it is sharp And I need to bleed I need to burn I need a sure thing And you are a mystery to me
