lyrics

I’m coming back around, I’m wearing through. I feel it all the time now, like I’m supposed to. And that’s exactly why this room collapsed in size. I thought “I should get over myself” while you guys were getting high. You’re running out of patience. Well, so am I.

It’s useful, and it’s the story we are choosing to believe, but the way I’m telling you, it’s hard to recognize: a symbol every scene, the ending wraps up clean, there’s no one still sad fifteen years on to fuck up Christmas Eve. Yeah, everybody’s changing, but mostly me.

Why say it? You know what’s coming. Why make things worse for yourself? I’ll play dead. I like it fine now.

I can’t keep it together while you shake hands. It’s complicated but it wasn’t what you were supposed to say.
