Sarah crawls up on her pedestal
made of marble at the top
the foundation styrofoam
and drinks alone
with all the birds and morning air
she's a crier, i'm a liar
we're a pair
who knows how long she'll have to wait
to take her time, to find that place
who knows how long she'll have to wait there
shake it off
why drag the rest of us around
it's a terrible addiction of the brain
I drag these knuckles back and forth
against these bars and sing la da da
but no one cares to ask my name
who knows how long I'll have to wait
to take my time, to find that place
who knows how long I'll have to wait and
focus on what makes me tick
and break the shell that came with it
Sarah falls for the first time in years
the whole crowd gathers round and carries on
down below she picks up pieces desperately
and doesn't see the crowd's disbelief
she's a fighter, I'm a writer
we're a team
who knows how long we'll have to wait
to take our time, to find that place
who knows how long we'll have to wait and
focus on what makes us tick
and break the shell that came with it

Come Over

I was empty, so confused
you were with me, still felt used
shift all night, still can't sleep
I was empty, you felt cheap
it may be something we can use
maybe something we can work with now
just for now
you were fragile as a doll
we were younger, more sociable
now we're something they can use
we need something, we all want something bad
that lasts
you put up for lost time, made out with more than you'd hoped
you left out how lonely you've been since the weather got cold
you called in a favor to me, you said 'I loved you before as a friend,
just come over'
so I went over
but it's not something worth the wait
we need something more than all the signs
it's not something worth the wait
we need something more than messages

Better View

you never try when you say you're going to
and I'd imagine that you'd continue to be
the last thing on my mind
but the way that you confuse the two
between better and the better view is a shame
you were right about everything love
the stars are brighter as plastic in my room
than the view we get at night
looking back at you as you remove
the slack around your silken noose
to destroy the better sense your father gave
I think better you had thought of who
would set aside more time for you
than me
I believe in addiction
and a certain level of pride
just to keep myself intact
it's a curious system
to avoid how you thought you ought to be
to learn a better way
and you're fooling who you were trying to
just not the way you planned
don't come crawling back beside me in my bed
don't know what to do with the side of you
I just don't understand
to embrace the side on either side again
