Back into town for a minute to pick up prescriptions The doctor refilled yesterday To call it affliction's a careless description Of the terrible itch in my brain The pharmacy opens at six in the morning I don't start my day until two I'll be there after sunset when everyone's just left And hope I don't run into you I do Oh, I do And since the minute I got here, been aging in dog years I'm watching time speed to help God, you look like a stranger I knew you in the summer Guess that's just the winter's fault Haven't seen you around since your father skipped town Had to hear it from one of your friends Think the last time I saw him, he kissed both our foreheads And I fell asleep in your bed Five years I tried to be soundless to keep you around But I always had too much to say Now I feel like a failure for standing in line here And daring to take up your space
