6 A.M., day after Christmas |
|
I throw some clothes on in the dark |
|
The smell of cold car seat is freezing |
|
The world is sleeping and I am numb |
|
Up the stairs to her apartment she is balled up on the couch |
|
Her mom and dad went down to Charlotte |
|
They're not home to find us out |
|
And we drive, now that I have found someone |
|
I'm feeling more alone, than I ever have before |
|
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly |
|
Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere |
|
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly |
|
They call her name at 7:30, I pace around the parking lot |
|
Then I walk down to buy her flowers, and sell some gifts that I got |
|
Can't you see? It's not me you're dying for |
|
Now she's feeling more alone, than she ever has before |
|
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly |
|
Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere |
|
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly |
|
As weeks went by, it showed that she was not fine |
|
They told me son it's time to tell the truth |
|
And she broke down and I broke down |
|
''Cuz I was tired of lying |
|
Driving back to her apartment |
|
For the moment we're alone |
|
She's alone and I'm alone |
|
Now I know it |
|
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly |
|
Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere |
|
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly |
