Goddamnitall

Eastern time has gotten the best of me
I blew my voice out giving the eulogy
My broken body
My aging knees
I haven't stood still since I was twenty-three

And you were there lying through your teeth
Always going after the cheap heat
Swearing that you're coming to meet me

Meet me on the fire escape
If you're coming to save me
I've been lying awake
Staring out at the dead street
I'm alone—the cold air let me know
I'm on my own
You're never gonna show

I got caught in the rip tide that follows you
I'd pull my teeth out just cause you asked me to
I can't forgive you—
No matter what I do
I hate that about me but I know it's true

I'm a sweater that you've given to Goodwill
Or lied about and sent to the landfill
I'm the sucker left holding my breath still

Meet me on the fire escape
If you're coming to save me
I've been lying awake
Staring out at the dead street
I'm alone—the cold air let me know
I'm on my own
You're never gonna show

Goddamnitall
Tell me what's so wrong with being alone
Oh no, goddamnitall
Tell me what it feels like seeing a ghost
No, no, goddamnitall
Tell me what's so wrong with being alone
No, no, goddamnitall
Goddamnitall
Goddamnitall

Meet me on the fire escape
If you're coming to save me
I've been lying awake
Staring out at the dead street
I'm alone—the cold air let me know
I'm on my own
You're never gonna show
