lyrics

You said you’d be here by now, but it’s past ten-thirty and I’m freezing and lonely
God damn, your pocket watch must be faulty
God damn, your mind must be somewhere else
With someone else

Don’t bother coming by my park bench apartment
I’m wandering the highways finding fine cuisine in garbage
My interior’s got that inferior old charcoal paisley wallpaper
T-T-T-Tell me, bout his good vibrations
T-T-T-Tell me bout my limitations

God damn, your pocket watch must be faulty
God damn, your gears must be turning early with someone new
I guess I’m overdue
But who’s to count?

You said you’d be here by now, but it’s 12 past midnight and it’s cold in the starlight
I guess your analogs must be busted
I guess your inner clock must be rusted from lack of use
I’m running out of juice

Don’t bother looking for me cause I won’t be hiding
I’m the lotus in plain view, biding your time and pining
Your interior’s got that superior new lavish velvet furniture
T-T-T-Tell me, bout his good vibrations
T-T-T-Tell me bout my limitations

I guess you must have turned with the century
I guess your cell phone’s run out of battery inside his room
I swear I’m over you

I will count my blessings and I’ll get back to you
I will wait unceasing just to see you
I refuse to rest until your coral lips spill the truth
Cause I count myself blessed just to have met you

You should count my treacherous glances and unearned second chances
You should do whatever makes you happy
You should beat my spurious ass back to Dante’s damned old land
Cause I’m not half a man and now I know that
Who am I to judge another human?

Until the night gives way to the morning
I’ll be here beneath the awning, beneath the moon
Denying every truth
