Paper Weights And Coffee Stains
(album: The Rest Of Our Lives Is Tonight)
my wallet
it´s only getting lighter
i´ll keep it folded for now it´s a paper weight
and i´d love to say it´s easier to move, to breathe, to walk
so much weight has been lifted though armor holds its value
and I´m always awaiting my cue
I´m always forgetting lines
say dreams destroy us briefly scream like the frustrated
they hide behind the desks and they´re being held captive
strangled by the phone lines spilling coffee on their best shirt
lost myself in my subconscious, my old habits
chewed my nails into rigid saw blades
i´ll clock out one more time, keep my stomach from my throat
empty both these cluttered pockets to scour for change
