Watching You Cry In Public

(album: 52 Weeks - 2009)

I'm trying to ease into this evening
I'm trying to ease into this evening
I'm trying to figure out what's the matter
But these problems are deeper than you and I
When I'm not busy watching you cry in public (as you read this)
I'll break your heart for the thousandth time
And tell you to get some help
Or get out of the house
Because you seem P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C

I really didn't want to have to spell it out
But you've left me with little choice
With resentment towards friends you've never really met
And inner office relations you can't seem to clearly voice
So, take twelve steps
Get out of the house
Because you seem so lost, stumbling and fumbling, drunk, down Fairmount Avenue

It's clear as a bell
But you're stubborn as hell and too hopeless to let your guard down
It's clear as a bell
But you're stubborn as hell and spilt your water ice across the table

Clean up this mess
Clean up this mess
Instead of waiting for it to clean itself
'Cause it isn't going anywhere
It isn't going anywhere
It isn't going anywhere overnight
But you'll ignore me and sleep, clothes on, uptight

Well, I'm trying to ease out of this evening
Well, I'm trying to ease out of this evening
Well, I'm trying to ease out of this evening
Well, I'm trying to ease out of this evening
