| And so she wakes up
|
| In time to break down
|
| She left a note up on the dresser and she’s right on time
|
| You don’t know anything right or wrong
|
| I said I know
|
| And she said so
|
| I wanna panic but I’ve had it so I go
|
| You don’t owe anything to anyone
|
| But don’t take your life
|
| Because it’s all that you’ve got
|
| You’d be better off just up and leaving
|
| If you don’t think they will stop
|
| And when you wake up
|
| Everything is gonna be fine
|
| Guarantee that you wake in a better place, in a better time
|
| So you’re tired of living
|
| Feel like you might give in
|
| Well don’t
|
| It’s not your time
|
| Looking through the paper today
|
| Looking for a specific page
|
| Don’t wanna find her full name followed by dates
|
| Because when I left her alone she made a sound, like a moan
|
| «You're known by everyone for everything you’ve done»
|
| Fuck buying flowers for graves
|
| I’d rather buy you a one way non-stop
|
| To anywhere, find anyone, do anything
|
| Forget and start again, love
|
| She said she won’t go (and that’s that)
|
| It hurts too much to stand by
|
| You’ve got to stop and draw a line
|
| Everyone here has to choose a side tonight
|
| The moment of truth is haunting you
|
| Don’t forget your family regardless what you choose to do
|
| You can’t decide and they’re all screaming «why won’t you?»
|
| I’ll start the engine but I can’t take this ride for you
|
| I’ll draw your bath and I’ll load your gun
|
| But I hope so bad that you’ll bathe and hunt
|
| Annie’s tired of forgetting about today

|
| She doesn’t need to solve them (solve them) solve them

| She said «forget me»
|
| But I can’t |
