lyrics

The stuttering sound of cellular phone interference
And the fluttering feel of the fingers I keep in my mouth
And the terrible taste of my tongue
And the bellowing bloke I’ve become
Have commenced me completely, then died out discretely
And made me remember the sun
Going down, just the way I like it
Hiding out under me

So you’ve found a new way to navigate back to my residence
You’ll collect me, correct me, then resurrect me
And bury my bones somewhere new
And babe, I couldn’t go
Because there’s someplace else you know
That I have been keeping my eye on when my eye wasn’t keeping on you
And should I leave don’t tell anybody
And should I grieve then you have won

So I’m buying your love with the money I got from my tax return
And I’ll put it away until Christmas or some other time
Because lately I simply don’t know where I’m going
In spite of the dozens of street signs of stolen
The trains try their hardest to keep me from rolling
So I roll back into bed
And think of you for as long as that will take me
And I sit around until the end of the day

Since the day I lost my mind
I’ve found it’s hard to find
You in the proper position
And me in the right state of mind
