lyrics

I obsess over my rations
I somehow feel I’m losing everyone
But that’s not the point
It’s that my friends are all content with losing me
I’ll say I’m sorry if I have to
I’d never wish ruin upon us, no
Not over some girl I kissed
Some week before she went off kissing him
Though she did
And now it’s a matter of letting her be

So where do you go?
And why do you do that?
One of these days you’ll wind up missing
And I’ll have to search
Yeah I’ll have to find you
I may get lost, so wish me luck
Well I’ve had it worse
This isn’t the first time
But I keep getting all these cold, blank stares
They’re thin as ice and keen as air
And I don’t care

I sit at home and count my laurels
I mean to hold myself in tranquil thoughts
But that’s not working out
Those creatures, they are lurking in the dark
Said I’d prefer we speak in person
But I’ll be damned if I invite her here
Yeah she may beg and scream
Well better her than me, I always say
What a waste
I’m always intent on saying goodbye

Oh, please let me know
It’s driving me crazy
Well let’s just say that I wind up quickly
And I’ll effervesce
I’ll burn like a lantern
And I’ve got time that I’d like to burn
I’m out of control
I’m all out of sorts here
I’ve been sitting reading almanacs
My hardcovers and paperbacks
I took them home in paper bags

I live within these walls that I’m talking to
____’__ ___________ __ _____
Seems my misguided genius has got me in a rut
And now I’m stuck in the mud
Yes, I’m a volcano, but a dormant one
So if I were to lie prone here
Would somebody pick me up?
Would somebody lie here with me
And launder this guilt that I’ve undone?

Quick, so now that it’s cold
Now that it’s winter
Well can’t we all just remain indoors?
And stop getting drunk
Just stop with the drinking
If for nothing else, just to keep warm
And hide from the snow
The whitest of winters
Until the morning comes and spring begins
The sun will rise and shine again
I promise we’ll be happy then
