Write me a song That's all I long for A simple melody To show your love for me 'Cause honestly I don't know if it's there anymore Write me a song It doesn't have to be that long It doesn't even have to rhyme All I need's a sign To show that we're still fine I could never find the words to describe A feeling I've never felt before But I'm asking you to try Please do not ask me why I just need this from you Do me this favor Spill your heart onto paper Sing it to me Help me see That you haven't changed That your love has stayed the same If it's deep down inside Please do not let it hide Write me a song Or Write me a note Tell me you took your coat And ran into the night air Sometimes life doesn't play fair When you reach Falcon Boulevard Send your lover my regards I'll miss you I'm sure But at least I'll have your note

In the good old way back when We were bestest friends I liked you 'cause your eyes were daydream blue When the bigger kids bullied me You'd say, "Hey, that's not funny," And I always thought I'd marry you You said living in the now Is the only way that you know how To look ahead is such a scary view And in spite of this, I pined Now I only look behind 'Cause I always thought I'd marry you You used to make me laugh You're a photograph You, my better half And I know you love me too I find it hard to tell If I believe in magic spells But we shared a bond like Ron and Harry do I mean, of all the people I know it's You who to me are closest And I always thought I'd marry you When we got drunk and rash And time came to leave the bash We promised that our passion would carry through I never felt more right Than I did that fucked up night And I always thought I'd marry you Special one You make loving fun You, my life's reason And I know you love me too I can tell you're not impressed Yes, maybe I'm obsessed But let's make sure we put blame where blame is due It's not your fault I cry It's just that, for some reason, I Always thought I'd marry you All my life You would end my strife You will be my wife And I know you love me too

Iced milk That's my favorite kind of milk You know how to make me cry You will never forget The times when I was upset You will never let go Of the time I said I love you so That was something There was something to be said for it I didn't trust it Still I felt it And I feel it yet You were perfect You were my personal favorite Love is heaven Love was better when we made it Brown hair Clasped between your fingertips I was there Epiphanies caught in between my lips You came over And lit the dog house on fire And as it smoldered Revealed your innermost desire It wasn't to love me It wasn't to leave your man for me You had trauma Real trauma in reality I got strong I put on my favorite empathy We talked it over Over your shoulder they were laughing Riceball I still think about the months We shared Can you hear me now What it meant in the course Of your coming of age Was it just a detour Did you rip out that page I used to dream I'd show up one day on your doorstep I didn't do it I told myself I could not force it You never called me I think you just didn't want to But I never called you So that might not be at all true Brown eyes That's my favorite kind of eyes You see Who I am inside You spread me wide open I never felt that again You're the reason I sing And I love you more than anything You ruined my life I'm completely screwed up And it's all your doing There's watery milk all over the floor What a waste of two good things I haven't been putting as much effort into stuff as I used to I can't just go back to the way I was before I knew you

I used to love waffles Now I think they're awful 'Cause I ate them every morning 'Til they got boring 'Til they lost their zing I ruined my favorite thing I had a girlfriend Who I thought I was perfect 'Til she got desperate to please me And made life too easy So I had to have a fling I ruined my favorite thing Music was an escape from life Until it became my life I played whenever I could I got pretty good I made a CD People gave me money People liked what they heard But oh Isn't it absurd Now I don't wanna sing I ruined my favorite thing I don't deserve love I don't deserve anything at all I'm a bullshitter I don't deserve love I don't deserve anything at all I'm a bullshitter I don't deserve love I don't deserve anything at all I'm a bullshitter I don't deserve love I don't deserve anything at all I'm a bullshitter Bullshitter, baby Bullshitter That's all I am I'm not a star hitter I'm not a true gritter I'm not John Ritter And I'm not your babysitter I'm not an apple fritter Or a cuddly little critter I'm just a quitter And a motherfucking bullshitter

Restless memories of you were keeping me awake I called Annalise and told her I thought we needed a break I could feel her tears across the wire, I left nothing resolved I just curled up alone and wished I'd not gotten involved My dreams that night were dark and filled with violence and pain And it bothers me to know that stuff is somewhere in my brain And that storm outside is raging still, it might be somewhat worse I'm not the person to ask, I don't recall what happened first Something about your head upon my shoulder In Virginia City where the morning comes too soon She and I bought matching guitars, but we never got in tune Still we played them on the sidewalk for the strangers passing by And we couldn't understand the way we didn't make them cry A simple act of congress was never gonna hold us back We were well-disciplined warriors with our horses painted black And I'm pretty sure the towers of the skyline split in two When they saw that passage open and the way I fell for you It was something about your head upon my shoulder Something about your lips upon my skin The time is flying, we are growing older And there ain't no way to change where we have been We fulfilled each other in the sunny month of June All the less ambitious people were just racing for the moon But we knew that truth and beauty would be nowhere to be found 'Til they looked inside themselves, in the sky, and in the ground Oh, your smile was classic literature, your eyes were solar beams That dug straight into my skull, where they learned all my fears and dreams And my heart was beating perfectly in time with how you moved I just laughed and took my socks off, there was nothing left to prove Something about your head upon my shoulder Something about your lips upon my skin The time is flying, we are growing older And there ain't no way to change where we have been I heard someone mention the Chicago World's Fair So I burned my cards and letters, and I chopped off all my hair Then when you came home, you knew immediately exactly what was wrong And you minced no words in letting me know where I don't belong Oh, the silence of your reason and the grace of your defeat Were like final cruel reminders of your potential for heat But I knew you weren't right, yeah I think I knew that all along I just tripped into your whirlwind, I got lost in your song Something about your head upon my shoulder Something about your lips upon my skin The time is flying, we are growing older And there ain't no way to change where we have been You know, I've been in train stations, and I've been from sea to sea And I read Great Expectations -- it's not what I thought it'd be And I traveled 'round the world trying to find a girl like you But I gave that up for things that were more possible to do And now I'm drunk halfway to hell, I can't stand on my legs And I'm praying to god to kill me please, the way a dog begs And I know I'd never have the guts to do it for myself Maybe that's why I approach you now, maybe I need your help Something about your head upon my shoulder Something about your lips upon my skin The time is flying, we are growing older And there ain't no way to change where we have been Desperate memories of you are keeping me alive I'm a shell of who I once was, I'm on automatic drive I let strangers take my blood and the clothes that I have worn I'm just curling up inside myself, wishing I'd not been born How many years must we perform this disappointing play We already know the ending, there is nothing more to say All that ever made a difference was your unexpected light And now even that is fading, dissipating in the night Something about your head upon my shoulder Something about your lips upon my skin The time is flying, we are growing older And there ain't no way to change where we have been
