Dirty hotel laundry rooms |
|
Old apartments, basic views |
|
We are the kings, we are the kings |
|
Never sleep and barely eat |
|
We can hardly catch a dream |
|
But it's better than that 9 to 5 |
|
No more cheap affairs |
|
No more sideways stares |
|
When I tell you where I've been last night |
|
No more cryptic notes |
|
Of when I'll be home |
|
You know you're better off alone |
|
I hate to tell you this |
|
Over the phone |
|
There was Portland and Columbus |
|
That's twice in a year |
|
Baby I'm a mess and you know |
|
I'm out of control |
|
I'm feeling crazy when I'm all alone |
|
The kind of crazy that makes you start shaking |
|
Saying things that you'd never say |
|
Maybe I thought we had a shot |
|
We'd get lost and burn up all of the maps |
|
And watch the world fall away |
|
Seven hundred "I owe you"s |
|
Holidays and birthdays too |
|
I've missed them all, I've missed them all |
|
Failed attempts at rendezvous |
|
This is just a dying cause |
|
But we talked it out and made a truce |
|
No more cheap affairs |
|
No more sideways stares |
|
When I tell you where I've been last night |
|
No more cryptic notes |
|
Of when I'll be home |
|
You know you're better off alone |
|
I hate to tell you this |
|
Over the phone |
|
There was Portland and Columbus |
|
That's twice in a year |
|
Baby I'm a mess and you know |
|
I'm out of control |
|
I'm feeling crazy when I'm all alone |
|
The kind of crazy that makes you start shaking |
|
Saying things that you'd never say |
|
Maybe I thought we had a shot |
|
We'd get lost and burn up all of the maps |
|
And watch the world fall away |
|
Judging by the look on your face |
|
You don't get it |
|
Like every word I said was abandoned grace |
|
Staring at me like you're amazed |
|
My bad habits are holding me up and away from you |
|
Baby I'm a mess and you know |
|
I'm out of control |
|
I'm feeling crazy when I'm all alone |
|
The kind of crazy that makes you start shaking |
|
Saying things that you'd never say |
|
Maybe I thought we had a shot |
|
We'd get lost and burn up all of the maps |
|
And watch the world fall away |
