I'm tired of living in your constellation
|
Most of your friends, they still don't know my name
|
I've never been good at orbiting
|
And everything you say is Greek to me
|
So why don't I blow the lid off this can of worms?
|
I think there might be a prize at the bottom
|
It's a Cracker Jack deal
|
I'll be free and you'll be rid of me
|
Everything's gold on the surface of the moment
|
But I take my coffee much blacker than you ever will
|
And when my day comes crashing down
|
At 3 a.m., without a sound
|
You're fast asleep...but I'm dying.
|
|
You're making me laugh
|
But I don't want to laugh anymore
|
People laugh when they don't really know the score
|
And laughing is just one step away
|
From crying...and I don't want to do that today
|
A bit of a piece of a fragment of you is enough
|
I can file it away with the last six months
|
In a tattered envelope
|
Stuck away in a book that I never read
|
Everything's gold on the surface of the moment
|
But I take my coffee much blacker than you ever will
|
And when my day comes crashing down
|
At 3 a.m., without a sound
|
You're fast asleep...but I'm dying.
|
|
I had a dream last night 'bout an angel
|
She was laughing at me, but so sweetly
|
Then she kicked me out the door
|
I fell out of bed and now my ribs are sore
|
Everything's gold on the surface of the moment
|
But I take my coffee much blacker than you ever will
|
And when my day comes crashing down
|
At 3 a.m., without a sound
|
You're fast asleep, but I'm dying
|
You're doing fine, but I'm dying.
