lyrics

You don't like that my clothes don't care
That my hair goes gray and I don't do shit about it
Well I was drinking Genesee in the foyer
Talking about another girl while I was thinking about you

And how you think I'm cold and I know I'm numb and I'm sure you're mad But I just play dumb about it
But sometimes I forget that we're in this mess and reluctantly I feel right at home without you

I've got 8 hundred regrets to dig through
An aviator jacket and a cannonball
I need a time machine to scold myself to tears
I've got 80 thousand threats to live through
One hollow cassette for a fabled love
I need a time machine to clarify my fears

I don't like that your dads a pig
That you get so mad but you don't do shit about it
And she was drinking blue moon in the living room saying that another Year was just another four letter word

I wanna clean myself of the promises that I made when I was getting cosmic about it
But to watch me walk away from all the days we spent so blind and mute must hurt

I’ve got 8 hundred regrets to dig through
An aviator jacket and a cannonball
I need a time machine to scold myself to tears
I've got 80 thousand threats to live through
One hollow cassette for a fabled love
I need a time machine to clarify my fears

Why do all my words keep failing
How could I be so unfeeling
Or have such injuring audacity

Why does Amtrak keep derailing
I could break right through the ceiling
High on existential camaraderie

You don't like that my clothes don't care
That my hair goes gray and I don't do shit about it
