i had hunch you'd be sleeping in hungover or not, it seemed you had lost interest i'd crash my car in some ditch east of your town it doesn't seem it so far, but i'd probably dig us right into the ground because miles make bad friends and you won't even call what's a couple lonely hours if your words are locked up in your jaw? we can listen to the same old songs but i'll never know what it's like to feel so close to you at all so what? are you a word i should just try to forget? i haven't worked up the courage to say how i feel about you yet another one's biting the dust, i can feel you peel away in an empty apartment from 1000 miles away because miles make bad friends and you won't even call what's a couple lonely hours if your words are locked up in your jaw? we can listen to the same old songs but i'll never know what it's like to feel so close to you at all

you're sullen all the while i taught you all you know your broken back's carved sutures in the stone that is your past weighed down way down at the bottom where i rest you throw an anchor and hope it's for the best you're clever, but it won't last when the sea's washed away our paths you're blue

i'm not unhappy but i'm a little on edge sneak out for some coffee and maybe a cigarette when i said i felt sorry i didn't quite mean what i said i'll tear down our future if you'd stop burning holes in my chest If I said you we're pretty, would you put on a smile again? we can never feel better if i don't get the chance to explain each mile's a marker, you can't let them get in the way but each time you start lying, my heart breaks just the same you can love what you lost, but you can't lose what you love

brother you don't need to turn away father you still breathe blackened lungs everyday separate we stay, two silvered clouds above the haze i buried your name as a soft and lonely thing so make me a wound inside your palm and hold hands with strangers in the warm september sun a grave of lessons and broken teeth will bury me from underneath, i saw that love's a silly thing mother you don't need to keep digging through those weeds we'd set fires down the street, you'd be praying on your knees the sky is just as such, a black and often wicked little crutch i swear it in your name, to think these things has always felt too vain so build me a nest inside your heart i'll sing you songs about how i never learned the right way to grow up a grave of nothings and false beliefs will bury me from underneath, i saw that love's a silly thing from underneath, i saw that love's a lonely thing from underneath, i saw that love's a stupid thing from underneath, i saw that love's a silly thing
