lyrics

The tile is cool on my flushed face as I sit up from the floor and I take a look at my reflection. He says to me, "You can draw that compass on your arm but it won't give you directions." I saw a shooting star but I couldn't make a wish. My words melted away like the ice in my drink. I know the way these things work and things are getting worse.
You went off to school and found the living was hard and with those morals, that's just cruel. So we smashed them all out on the sidewalk and drank to our health. Then you turned and walked back to the house because the girls wanted to talk. Because you fell in love with Molly, but kissed Lucy in the pool. Her eyes were changing shape like the face of the moon. I know the way these things work and things are getting worse.
I was strung out in the back of a pick-up truck, there was a sign that read, "When it rains, it pours." No matter how twisted or lost we get, it's only my brain decoding a spore.
And I could outrun the storm but I don't want to be dry. No, not for now, at least not tonight...
