lyrics

Recently I've been driving with my eyes closed
Hoping I'll implode in a matter of seconds
My desire it beckons
I need reading glassees
I can't see anyone I want up close
But who would I see?
I've spent the past whole year running away from me
Maybe jogging, yeah, that'll fit it better
Or how I only go out if it's the perfect weather

And it might just be placebo but at least I'm feeling something
I think if you jumped off a cliff right now I'd follow in the same fashion
She gets me, with all that passion

Talking didn't work; I've been writing and reading
Exercising my breathing
In, out, in and again
I only want you around if I think you're convenient
I gotta stop lying just cuz it's convenient
I dialed her cell-phone number
In a tight-knit sweater for the worse or better
I don't know who allows me to speak
I know I talk big game but talk's not cheap

I've swung slot machines where if you hit three cherries the lights'll light up real, real, real, real bright
And when I'm alone I'll envision a guy like me seeing them shine
This culture's crazy--we think we have time but we don't
