I have stared at the sky at night
and it defines my broken mind.
It says I'm too literal,
I'm too literal.
Had a chat with roscoe lee browne,
but can't remember a word we said.
I was already shitfaced,
I was already down.
I was already down,
I'm gonna rot in my bed all day.

You're taking eight pills a day,
you're shaking your hands.
You can't tap your iphone right.
But why did that have to go wrong?
You moved to the country side,
You say you've grown old.
You want to let go of all the things
only you could have gripped onto.
And I...
I'm like a rat,
I'm spending time with you at the trash cans.
I'm like a cockroach,
I'm living out of what you don't want.
You're smoking two packs a day,
and you're drinking to sleep.
can't get no company?
but why did that have to go wrong?
You're waiting for me to call,
and i'm hoping you won't.
You want to let go of all the things
only you could have gripped onto.
I'm like a rat,
I'm spending time with you at the trash cans.
I'm like a cockroach,
I'm living out of what you don't want.
You kept score, you got what you wanted
two daughters that don't love you back.
You kept score, you got what you wanted
two daughters that don't love you back.
You kept score, you got what you wanted
You got what you wanted, you got what you wanted

It's just that I like you
and I don't think you like me back.
I just cry without knowing well
why i'm still here i'm wasting without you.
But I want you,
and I don't think you want me back.
I could die without knowing well
why I'm still here i'm wasting without you.
But I still got Leopold Stotch
and Norb & Daggett on television
I thought that you could understand.
But then I knew you, I saw you.
There was nothing left that I could do.
Nothing I could do, nothing I
you took all of my time,
you took all of my time,
you took all of my time.
It's just that I like, that I like.
It´s just that I like, I like, I like
How my heart it sits empty.

Notes

I met you with my long beard,
after nights without sleeping at all.
My tired eyes matched perfectly
with the color on your cheeks.
I found it hard to concentrate,
through the time I spent inside your class.
I thought some coffee would help
but I used some chocolate instead.
I've been reading the notes,
I've been checking my phone,
reading the letters you wrote.
They say you're making some coffee,
They say that you're willing to stay.
We went to your aunt's for the night,
she was out of town but still she was ok with it.
You and I slept just overlapped,
Until it was bright outside.
Days after that, back in the class.
You asked me to read out loud.
but I was asleep on my seat,
weeks of sleep I had to catch up with.
I've been reading the notes,
I've been checking my phone,
reading the letters you wrote.
They say you're making some coffee,
They say that you're willing to stay.

You made me scroll through your photos for answers,
and all I got was this headache and the promise it'd stay.
And so I finally stopped.
How much more did you think I could take?
Recount that time I went back to my place.
and killed a box of white wine on the way.
at least I finally stopped.
How much more did you think I could take?
