The last horizons I can see are filled with bars and factories
and in them all we fight to stay awake... Drink enough of anything to make this world look new again Drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves She had nothing left to say so she said she loved me I stood there grateful for the lie... Drink enough of anything to make this girl look new again Drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves Turn summer trees to bones and ice Turn insect songs against the night With words we build and words we break I'm drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves... Maybe I could use you to reassure myself I wouldn't wish this indecision on anybody else Drink enough of anything to make this world look new again And when the sin smiles how could it be wrong The last horizons I could see are now resigned to memories I never thought I'd still be here today... Drink enough of anything to make myself look new again Drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves |

Tell me do you think it'd be alright
If I could just crash here tonight As you see I'm in no space for drivin' And any way I 've got no place to go And you know it might not be that bad You were the best I ever had I hadn't blown the whole thing years ago I might no be alone Tomorrow we can drive around this town And let the cops chase us around The past is gone but something might be found To take it's place Hey jealousy- You can trust me not to drink And not to sleep around And if you don't expect too much form me You might not be let down 'Cos all I really want's to be with you And feel like I matter too If I didn't blow the whole thing years ago I might be here with you Tomorrow we can drive around this town Andlet the cops chase us around The past is gone but something might be found To take it's place Hey jealousy- Listen to my heart There's only one thing I can start |

I can see it in her letters on the paper with her pen
Her response is getting stranger Think she's coming round again So tell me, Mrs. Rita, what's it say in my tarot Read my palm and tell me why do lovers come and go Is she coming round for me once again Around or was that the end I just hope she's coming round again I've been keeping myself busy with my books and with my tapes And every day's much better since I've slowed my drinking pace There's no swimming in the bottle It's just someplace we all drown I lost myself in sorrow, I've lost my confidence in doubt Is she coming round for me once again Around or was that the end I just hope she's coming round again Get in the car and drive through town Down the block and back around Pretending that she's there with me, we drive Gone forever Well, my patience keeps me plaintive, my high hopes keep me alone My lover's will is shaken I wish she would just come home So tell me, Mrs. Rita, what's it say in my tarot Read my palm and tell me why do lovers come and go Is she coming round for me once again Around or was that the end I just hope she's coming round again I just hope she's coming round... |

I want to tell if I am or am not myself
It's hard to know how far or if at all could go I've waited far too long For something I forgot was wrong I don't know all the answers I think that I'll find Or have it within the time But it's all that I'll have in mind Until I fall away I won't keep you waiting long Until I fall away I don't know what to do anymore Until I fall away My fear pretend that I'll never be in love again It's real to me but not like these fools And not like this scene I won't find or have it within the time If it's all rusted and fade In the spot where we fell Where I thought I'd left behind It's loose now but we could try Until I fall away I won't keep you waiting long Until I fall away I don't know what to do anymore Until I fall away... When there's no good answers And no new questions Another personal disaster There's nowhere to go but down... ... Until I fall away I won’t keep you waiting long Until I fall away I don’t know what to do anymore Until I fall away... |

so i guess i must have just been dreaming,
when i thought i heard myself say no, and anyway it looks like noone heard me, so here i go. cuz when youre in the company of strangers, or with the strangers you call friends, you know before you start just how its gonna end. and so remember when those doors swing open, and all the drinks are passed around, anytime the pickins' look too easy, hold me down i cant remember why i like this feeling, when it always seems to let me down, soon i find im searching for the exit, from the ground. and if i think the room is turning faster, and i think the music is too loud, by then ill have another broken story, let me out. and so remember when those doors swing open, and all the drinks are passed around, when half the party moves into the bathroom, hold me down. if youre at the tail end of the evening, and that good feeling comes around, anytime the pickins' look too easy hold me down. down and i want back up. down and ive gone too far. well i guess i must have just been reeling, when i felt myself begin to fall, i realized im boundin down the hallway off the walls. and if my bed was standing in the corner i could just fall into it right now know that id be starin at the ceiling goin round and round and so remember when those doors swing open, and all the drinks are passed around, when half the party moves into the bathroom, hold me down. or if youre at the tail end of the evening and that good feelin comes around anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me down. down and i want back up. down and ive gone too far. know that ill never be back home. down and ive gone too far. |

I've been waiting around all night
Your warm kiss is on my mind A piece of you is all I've got But the whole damn thing is what I want I've been waiting around here all night long Holding onto these memories until they come undone My hands are tied... Telephone is ringing by my bed I pick it on up and the line goes dead I splash summer water on my face Clears my mind, I'm out of this place I've been waiting around here all night long Holding onto these memories until they come undone My hands are tied... My nerves are frayed and I've had enough I'm a lot afraid that it'll hurt too much And I can't seem to stop at all I'm plain wore through waiting for your call I've been waiting around here all night long Holding onto these memories until they come undone My hands are tied... Want you round here all the time Just can't seem to shake you off my mind My hands are tied... |

Found Out About You
by Gin Blossoms All last summer in case you don't recall I was yours and you were mine forget it all Is there a line that I could write Sad enough to make you cry All the lines you wrote to me were lies The months roll past the love that you struck dead Did you love me only in my head? Things you said and did to me Seemed to come so easily The love I thought I'd won you give for free Whispers at the bus stop I heard about nights out in the school yard I found out about you Rumors follow everywhere you go Like when you left and I was last to know You're famous now and there's no doubt In all the places you hang out They know your name and know what you're about Whispers at the bus stop I heard about nights out in the school yard I found out about you Street lights blink on through the car window I get the time too often on AM radio You know it's all I think about I write your name drive past your house Your boyfriend's over I watch your light go out Whispers at the bus stop I heard about nights out in the school yard I found out about you |

I've lost my mind
On what I'd find And all of the pressure that I left behind On Allison Road Fools in the rain If the sun gets through Fires in the heaven of the eyes I knew On Allison Road Dark clouds fall in when the moon was near Birds fly by A.M. in her bedroom stare There's no tellin' what I might find I couldn't see I was lost at the time On Allison Road Yeah I didn't know I was lost at the time On Allison Road So she fills up her sails With my wasted breath And each one's more wasted than the others you can bet On Allison Road Now I can't hide (on Allison Road) So why not drive (on Allison Road) I know I want to love her but I can't decide On Allison Road And I didn't know I was lost at the time Eyes in the sun where the road wasn't wide And I went looking for an exit sign All I wanted to find tonight On Allison Road Yeah I didn't know I was lost at the time On Allison Road I've lost my mind If the sun gets through Fires in the heaven of the eyes I knew On Allison Road On Allison Road (On Allison Road) Allison Road |

Time won't stand by forever
If I know it's true And I've learned not to say never Else I'll seem the fool 29, you'd think I'd know better Living like a kid Cause when my lies may seem less than clever It's when I fall for it Only time will tell If wishing wells Can bring us anything Fade like scenes From childhood dreams Forgotten memories Some rides don't have much of a finish That's the ride I took Through good and bad and straight through indifferent Without a second look There's no intentions worthy of mention If we never try So hang your hopes on rusted out hinges Take 'em for a ride Only time will tell If wishing wells Will bring us anything Fade like scenes From childhood dreams Forgotten memories Some rides don't have much of a finish That's the ride I took Through good and bad and straight through indifferent Without a second look Only time will tell If wishing wells Will bring us anything Fade like scenes From childhood dreams Forgotten memories |

Well, is it any wonder that the stars just don't rush by
When you're only doin' 60 through this oh-so-vacant night But it's lacking something big this time What the hell did you expect to find Aphrodite on a barstool by your side Twelfth night, we go After something everyone should know Somewhere in the distance out of sight Then I saw: gin mill, rainfall What do you remember, if at all? Only pieces of the night... And is it any wonder in the middle of the crowd If you let your feet get trampled on when the music is that loud But you wanted to be where you are But it looked much better from afar A hillside in shadow between the people and the stars Twelfth night we go After something everyone should know Somewhere in the distance out of sight Then I saw: gin mill rainfall What do you remember, if at all? Only pieces of the night... It seems so distant But still only half the night away Where notions between your questions come too Is it any wonder where The pieces of the night have been Twelfth night we go After something everyone should know Somewhere in the distance out of sight Then I saw: gin mill rainfall What do you remember, if at all? Only pieces of the night... |

New York City where it's cold as hell
And the streetlights shone in my blue room I was thinking about the nights we spent Back in Galveston beneath the Georgia moon It was early and I'd had my share I was countin' change for a cab ride back to bed She looked to me through the cold night air And thoughts of you kicked off inside my head Well she was tall hair dark as midnight She had a way just like you do To make me feel just like a woman should You can't call it cheatin' Cause she reminds me of you... Though I loved you and the trust we shared Lord don't tell me that I've thrown it all away A moment's weakness shouldn't change the fact That I need you and there's nothing more to say Lord she was tall hair dark as midnight She had a way just like you do To make me feel just like a woman should You can't call it cheatin' Cause she reminds me of you |
