The city’s asleep
Our shades shiver on the street
Like stains just waiting to fade
The few words you speak
Come as smoke, go as breeze
Our cigarettes sizzle away
You say there’s no reason to play
You say there’s no need to entertain
You’re tired and confused
You’ve felt underused
Like a little gap in between
The song that’s been stuck
In your head these past weeks
Is about being a beautiful freak
You flinch and then you move away
You say one night is all you can take
And you won’t be around
When the blurry black sky burns to blue
And the little things remind me of you...
