Lyrics
I've been locking myself up in my house for some time now
Reading and writing and reading and thinking
And searching for reasons and missing the seasons
The Autumn, the Spring, the Summer, the snow
The record on stop and the record on go
Latches latched, the windows down
The dog coming in and the dog going out
Up with caffeine and down with a shot
Constantly worried about what I've got
Distracted by work but I can't make a stop
My confidence on and my confidence off
I sink to the bottom I rise to the top
And I think to myself that I do this a lot
And the world outside just goes and goes and goes and goes and goes and goes...
And witness it all through the blinds of my window
THREE, FOUR
I'm a little nervous about what you'll think
When you see me in my swimming trunks
And last night in New York I got raging drunk
Remember one time I got raging drunk with you
I can recall a time when we made the city
Streets our playground, kissing in the fountains
Filled with cigarettes and bottles
Sped through Italian city streets of cobblestone
Because we had to
Because I loved you
Because the damned alcohol
Because what ever at all
Now I've grown to aware of my mortality
To let go and forget about dying
Long enough to drop the hammer down
And let the indolence go wild and flying through
Because we had to
