She lights another cigarette
Counts all the lines that she'll reject
She whispers "I won't drown for this
And I hope it's worth it"
Step back cause my heart won't breathe and I need to clear the air
Tell me there's a future where I'm here and you're still there
Keep track cause the pain won't ease and the oxygen is thin
Maybe starting fires is where the entropy begins
The ends near and it's getting closer
Before we settle I need some closure
The jokes lost cause we're out of sync
But we make a fetching drama don't you think
Can we cut try starting over
You mind's far and I need you closer
The last act and it shouldn't end black
Like a cheap Sopranos ending cut to
Delete the scene and rewind
I'll get the words right I promise this time
She lights another cigarette
Counts all the lines that she'll reject
She whispers "I won't drown for this
And I hope it's worth it"
I can't list all the things I did wrong
I can't listen to Spanish Love Songs
The plots dead from start to fin
But it made compelling tragedy within
Can we cut, we're losing light now
We got what we needed somehow
The ends rushed I will admit
But everything in time will turn to
Protect the star and rewind
I promise that I'll try harder this time
She lights another cigarette
Counts all the lines that she'll reject
She whispers "I won't drown for this for this"
Maybe I should be more because I couldn't be less
You're a Bergman at least and I'm a Sandler at best
Maybe there's a new cut, and we don't die in the end
No worries no grief and no regrets
She lights another cigarette
Counts all the lines that she'll reject
She whispers "I won't drown for this
And I hope it's worth it"
