Tell me you can't Swear I'll go peaceful I'm backing up out as you speak Hands in the air I am steady no temper moves Cool on the floor of yours Get gone Say want you gone and so long Say won't you stop and I'll stop If you stay where you are Then I'll never fault you 'Cause static is blurred black and white And you go to work while I try To find something Nobody wants it Nobody wants it for long I'm the one that you thought Was your ticket out of here We'll buy a car with a million miles on it I'll dig it out of the snow And we'll set alarms and breakfast while it's dark I will slow down and flicker and fall Into a life Into a life unlike this one with its balding tires And heads because we're tired of spending our time On a dream that's been dying Our reasons for charging Receding and aging Is feeding on me and you hate me complaining But honestly where would I be in a year We are here While we're here But I fear we're not here while we're here We'll eat and we'll shit and we'll drink and we'll piss And I'll only auld lang syne when the year changes
