Into It. Over It. 22 Syllables
You're too occupied choking on the smoke
From this short fuse of mine, which took a half-year to light,
To realize you should have waited for some sort of cue
Before jabbering on and on about the towns you once knew.
'Cause frankly, I asked you to stay.
It's not my fault that you left anyway.
A borrowed idea which was yours to borrow-
You can thank me later to keep you busy day after day.
During sets of long hours dealing four-dollar drinks
To ten-dollar tables. Is this all as you imagined it?
Talent to townie, just wasting it.
'Cause frankly, I asked you to stay.
So here's 22 syllables to show you I'm capable...
Until you decide we're taking our time,
I'll read about us a couple days every month.
Until you decide we're taking our time,
I'll read about us a couple days every month.
It's not me in the wrong.
It's not me in the wrong.
Taking our time a couple days every month.
It's not me in the wrong.
Taking our time a couple days every month.
It's not me in the wrong.
It's not me in the wrong.
My Winter, it never is quieter without you.
My kitchen at midnight is quieter without you.
My evenings in early are quieter without you.
My pockets and wallet are quieter without you.
But frankly, I'd asked you to stay.
It's not my fault that you left anyway.
Until you decide that we're wasting our time,
I'll be reading about us a couple days every month.
So until you decide that we're wasting our time,
I'll be reading about us a couple days every month.
