Uptown Sleep Solution

(album: Pass The Poison - 2006)

Pressed my nose through her straight black hair
Please stay with me
Taking in the details of the door
So what is it that you're crying for
Louder than bombs on the stereo
You don't have to go
I've seen people freezing up tonight
And hope slips if you can't hold it tight

Felt the pull of the city streets
A few feet away
Watching minutes crawling towards dawn
I'll probably miss you when I'm gone

So let the record play
It covers up the things we don't say
See that the worlds flipped upside down
The flames that I felt for you
Turned to snow the last day or two
So I can't sleep in uptown

Close your eyes for one last kiss goodbye
So sick of reasons why
You filled me up until I cracked
With no scrips the pain keeps coming back

Icy road up until the end
I can't take another bend
It's my fault I knew what you're about
Unlocked the door and wandered out
