The end result of so many meetings At late night dinners with no one eating We sit in corners and sip burnt coffee Count the tiles upon the ceiling Skip this pretense and cut straight to dying Don't pick me to keep your eyes from crying You said so much without even parting your lips
It's past 3 am and I'm still far from sleep This is a habit that I can't break You're my only company I'm skipping stones
Street lights flicker like this match in my hand Street lights flicker like this match in my hand Street lights flicker like this match in my hand Begging to strike Begging to strike
And I keep repeating, but this payphone tele stopped recieving Flat out of change now I'm sure you won't accept the charges It's all the same cause by the morning I'll be halfway to Colorado Or some place like that
You said so much without even parting your lips It's past 3 am and I'm still far from sleep This is a habit that I can't break You're my only company I'm skipping stones down a south surburban street
She keeps on asking "do you think it hurts much to die" "It's hurting so much more to stay alive now" She's gonna find out how much it hurts to die She laced her perfume up with death Feel it in my lungs so I'll pull in the deepest breath and drop my head
