So On

I came back and thought I'd win you
In a heartbeat back and we'd begin
The best times again
The best times again
And after six long months I shave my hair down
and tell all my friends to meet me downtown
I'm so done with this
I am so over this
And then you walk in alone
And thats begging the question
Who's gonna walk you home
It seems a little silly to stare for so long
But this red is gonna be in my eyes till the dawn
And that dress that I remember's the one you got on
So I just gotta go home I just gotta go home
Because you're on
What If I went to the show cause it the place
Where you might go
And I'm a little bit, desperate, more desperate
By half, are you into that?
And someone tells you right before you see me stumble out the door
And he's holding you there
And you've cut your hair
And its one bad hug and "How you been?"
"Well I guess i'm fine. Have you met him?"
"It's been a while since we've last seen
eachother now-" "yeah I guess its been..."
"I'll call you soon is it still the same..."
Number I know better than all of them

I Never Call

Just around the way there's a girl that I laid
And she's wondering why I never call
or maybe she don't wonder at all
You see a couple weeks ago you're just this girl that I know
We get in trouble getting stoned at a bar
And when we drove home you crashed my car
And we never talked about
And we never screamed or shouted
And as I walked out I thought about
if I had just asked we might have found it
So I got on a bus
Back to where we fucked up
And a couple days ago I saw you with your new friends
You don't smile now as much as you did then
I bought us some blow from this girl up the road
And we were dancing as the cops busted in
They cuffed me to your arm and I've loved you since then
After 20 days below you're waiting out in the snow
How you smile now is my favorite thing
You took me in you arms left the car idling
And we're driving so fast and we're talking like twins
I see the lights go out and I don't know why
And when I come to i'm lying with you eye to eye
Rendered in twain, fall out the window again
talk to a head, they tell me keep breathing instead
Woke up from a dream
Oh no its the same refrain,
What are they doing here again
caught in a landslide
In the rain
Don't tell me
That you know
When you don't

Seems So Silly

It seems so silly
To go to sleep
When you're asking me what will become of we
And we've been drinking
It makes it seem
That this afterglow is all we'll ever need
There's somebody waiting on the porch for you
Please tell them there's nothing left for them here
You know the things I say to you are true I tell you
I know the things you say to me are true I tell you
We're making breakfast
You tell me dreams
Where I'm watching as they're ripping out your seems
Well fuck you too then
If how we live
Is just questioning the answers that we give
And if you go into my bedroom
And look in my top dresser drawer
You will see the letters I've been writing for
The last seven years to someone
whom you've never met before
Now she's calling my name and knocking at our door
No I just can't leave her waiting anymore

When I
03:41

I take you out you don't seem to mind
That I'm not that excited
You ask me how its all going
And I don't try to hide it
I'm worried that nothings gonna work out
I'm wasted in my prime
And you look me right in the eyes
And ask me just one time
"Have you been in love?"
And no I guess I never have
I've always run back from that
The one who had the greatest chance
She left and never looked back
You ask me wether we're good together
And nothing's ever been sad
As you when I look in your eyes
And tell you i've got nothing
To love
And now its been quite a few months
And we keep talking all night
At this old bar thats not very far
From where we'll soon be living
I stopped comparing how we were faring
And now you're my best reason
To love
