Wasted, on my bicycle taking time away for me
Careless, I wanna be staring at trees
Swaying handles, cool as a candle
Like a tongue flopping dog out a window
The sky's got no moon. The air is crisp and dry
And the streetlights guide me while the shadows grow and shrink
At the rate of a flickering film that I'm living
Forgot all the words to your favorite song
Perhaps you never knew them and got them all wrong
So I made up my own, and I think that they're better
They sync with the weather and make sense to me
I'll write them down. We can read them together
What else is there to do
You've got me. You've got everything. You're the one to choose
Not sure how I fell and skinned and scraped my back
Curb checks most likely, live wires on sidewalks
Long distance calls touched all the drawls and healed non-existent pains
I love how you laughed when things weren't right
When things were cut up and delirious
You can't be serious when it's an obvious joke
Choking back tears and veering into the shit
And I'm in my mean time, you'll never see me
In the apartment where we're supposed to be
