[00:02.068] | “You’re totally ignoring me,” she said as she put on her shirt |
[00:07.868] | I was lying on the bed, concentrating on her skirt |
[00:12.484] | “Did you hear one word I said?” she said |
[00:15.092] | “I don’t know, it’s all a blur” |
[00:17.362] | I close my eyes |
[00:20.984] | We fell in love in a great big rush |
[00:23.262] | Three years ago this June, I do recall |
[00:26.463] | Playing arcade games with her |
[00:28.427] | And wanting nothing at all |
[00:31.170] | Just this silly skinny girl |
[00:33.260] | Who tended to trip and fall |
[00:37.298] | On her lies |
[00:39.824] | But then summer came and we felt the strain |
[00:41.896] | Of the damning things we’d said |
[00:43.966] | All the summer rains like hurricanes |
[00:46.593] | That flew around our heads |
[00:48.517] | All the endless conversations, you know |
[00:51.199] | Like the things you could’ve done alone |
[00:53.631] | Instead, instead, instead, instead, instead |
[00:58.485] | So I fucked it up like I always do, I was born to be alone |
[01:04.784] | I don’t even know if the words were true that I screamed into the phone |
[01:09.407] | All I know is everybody leaves or so it seems to me |
[01:13.983] | When I’m alone, alone, alone, alone, alone |
[01:19.078] | But I was younger then and stronger then, somehow I can’t explain |
[01:23.184] | How these years can be so humbling, so strangely full of pain |
[01:27.713] | Just how everyone and everything must change and change and change and change |
[01:33.864] | And change and change and change |
[01:39.315] | Just like that |
[02:00.406] | Sometimes I feel just like a train that’s running off the tracks |
[02:04.369] | And sometimes I think I’ve said too many things I can’t take back |
[02:08.683] | And sometimes it seems like everything I do is just a waste |
[02:13.178] | In fact, that’s it, I think oh wait, I’m sure |
[02:18.320] | But I’m trying every morning that I wake to stand up straight |
[02:22.536] | And to always tell the truth and give back more than I take |
[02:27.109] | And to be kind and pure, less fucking scared of everything |
[02:31.904] | I just can’t take much more of this, I’m sure |
[02:41.217] |
