I'm stuck on the couch and it's already october,
I'm trying to stay sensible, but i'm never sober,
i took a drive south, just to space out, just to unwind.
had to get out, to get out the crash of your venetian blinds
You play confrontationist, a cynical sight,
you're stuck as a pessimist, while we play in the light, you wanted to fight
I gotta get to La Luz tonight
I'm sitting half drunk on a concrete floor, in the middle of nowhere,
the banality and sin, is the reality i'm in, with the toss of her glowing hair,
I finally felt a summer breeze that didn't make me wanna puke,
Tell me that your pouting lips, and shouting hips, aren't just another goddamn fluke.
I sit in euphoria, in her harmony,
hanging in hysteria, a simple symphony, when she starts to sing
i hope to hell she remembers me.
(Bridge)
Perfection's like a paradox, but only from my point of view,
I tried not to drive around her block just to catch a glimpse or two,
I can't get out the smell of her that she left in my bed
the type of hell that we went through, still won't leave my head
You play the sensationalist, you hit every note
so i'll be an accompanist, just to keep you afloat, you wanted the most
just don't let me become your ghost.
