Wrestling With A Wrecking Ball

Hand prints in the dust
Tales link back to us
Hard truths yours to bear
Find youth in your despair
All of the stars align inside of her head
All of the answers hide despite her footsteps
All of her prophesying lies to itself
She's the centre of a universe built for her

Jane stays a vapour trail
Pinned back on the rails
Life's scars carried around
Don't let them lock you out

I am wrestling with a wrecking ball
I am resting on my chemicals
I am wrestling with a wrecking ball
I am praying for a miracle
I am getting far too cynical
I am wrestling with a wrecking ball

So what does the crystal say?
Is that the only way?
She found herself a prince
And I've never seen her since

This is her one and only chance to step off the train
This is her one and only chance to bring me back again

I am wrestling with a wrecking ball


5 interesting facts about Wrestling With A Wrecking Ball:

1. It's one of only two songs that the band have played at every gig (the other being Treetops)
2. It's actually a collection of five different songs crammed together
3. It borrows heavily from a number of Alex's own solo songs
4. It's got nothing to do with anyone called Jane
5. It's about when someone is far more important to you than you are to them and getting quite frustrated by this
