lyrics

A girl I once loved was skating outside my door
When she fell I ran, I held her inside my arms
She said, "Who are you with?"
I said, "I don't know who I am."
I then she disintegrated right out of my hand
And I said...

Ed was talking, he was talking all day
And drinking Coca-Cola outside of Burger King
He said, "Coke is the best, and you are the worst,
And love is only true when it is something that hurts."
And I said...

I was smoking weed with a buddy named Ben
He used to buy me beer, but now I buy it for him
His house was rotting, it was falling apart
But sometimes something dirty is the nearest to your heart
And I said...

Sitting here right now, I wonder what it all could mean
There's all of these people in all of these scenes
Perhaps the answer is that, despite all the strife,
All we do is play a role in someone else's life
And I said...

Fall is coming, as it does each year
Summer's last stand whispers softly in my ear
I think of a love who has thrown me away
I still miss her more, each and every day
Since she said...

Kirk was smiling, his teeth stained with wine
He asked me to introduce him to a friend of mine
They hit it off, but soon he tapped me on the shoulder
Saying, "I've drained this bottle and I'm back for another."
And I said...

A friend of a friend, who I don't like too much
He grabbed onto me, and he cried at my touch
He said, "I feel the loneliness in my existence
And I feel the emptiness in my resistance."
And I said...

Sitting here right now...
