Bleeder

(альбом: Alkaline Trio / Hot Water Music - 2002)

You came to me like a dream.
The kind that always leaves
Just when the best part starts.
It ends so abruptly
To leave you stunned and naked
In your bedroom all alone.
It's kinda funny how something so soothing
Gets interrupted by the ring of a telephone.

And you broke me like the cigarette
That I busted on the day I quit.
But now that I've been drinking
I'm out of smokes and I wish that I hadn't.
Woke up to my daily headache
And the realization that you are gone.
Oh my sweet darling happiness
You've been away from me all along.

One thing that I never said
I'm truly happy in my heart and in my head.
A lonely liver suspended in liquid.

You came to me like a dream
The kind that always leaves.
Just when the best part starts
It ends so abruptly.
To leave you stunned and naked
In your bedroom all alone.
Kind of funny how something so soothing
Gets interrupted by the ring of a telephone.

It's one thing I never said
I'm truly happy in my heart and in my head
A lonely liver suspended in liquid
It's one thing that I never did was smile.
Missing a case
Lacking a lid
My heart bleeds for what you never did until now...
