Lyrics
You’re sittin in the space I’m starin into
And I can’t barely light my cigarette
There’s a beer where my tears are fallin into
And the way to love me I just ain’t found yet
And I’m down on the couch
Sullen still, delaying light
Lay it all on me now
Just for now, just for tonight
Words stuck inside my head like arrows
Just over the Washington State Freeway
My last days, ripped up and banned at last
I kiss the ruler from my balcony
Fly by night, stuck in my mind
A song is drawn from the hotel mirror
Did the least I could do
To bring it down, down the mountain
You’re sittin in the space I’m starin into
And I can’t barely light my cigarette
There’s a beer where my tears are fallin into
And the way to love me I just ain’t found yet
Fly by night, stuck in my mind
A song is drawn from the hotel mirror
Did the least I could do
To bring it down, down the mountain
In a silver ribbon to the sea
