Unopened letters on my kitchen table indicate that I've fallen behind Ignoring your calls keeps me from losing my mind I'm constantly dehydrated from drowning out my insides So now I'm working on permanence of the bags under my eyes I'm so far removed from the way I want to be I've tried to tell you but you won't come meet me I guess dreading being awake became a must Around the same time I realised that I just Sit around and think about the things that I can do without As they become the only things I do As I see my neighbour's Christmas tree lying dead out on the street Alarm bells sound so loud inside my head Another year spent hanging by a thread Could have been spent fast asleep instead I'm so far removed from the way I want to be I've tried to tell you but you won't come meet me I guess dreading being awake became a must Around the same time I realised that I just Sit around and think about the things that I can do without As they become the only things I do Like stand half-cut outside bars as I choke on second hand cigarette smoke This life's not got the charm that it used to My skin cracks as I rub my eyes at the bus stop under grey skies I'm hoping that this feeling disappears Those reassuring words you spoke remind me that it's all a joke But I wonder why I've not laughed in years

All the things they say That you lost your way Something don't sit right I knew you more than to just keep score And I know you were trying Was there anybody else there? I think somebody ran away And I would too Yeah I would too Someone's hiding something from me Somebody's lying to the police And I would too That's what we do So come out come out with your hands up The police police got their minds made up And the bullet says you're guilty The bullet says you're guilty I know they lie I can see it in their eyes Something just don't jive There's something more About how you hit that floor That glove don't fit right Was there anybody else there?

I couldn't make it through your wake So many people I ain't seen for so long They played songs that I knew you'd hate I can almost hear you laughing And if you weren't dead you would have died They had a carwash to pay for your funeral yeah A carwash to pay for your funeral In the parking lot of the bar we called home They had a carwash to pay for your funeral I don't wanna fill your grave I just wanna pop in whenever I want to I don't wanna talk to nobody who not you I don't wanna fill your grave I just wanna lay down by your side I don't even care if you're cold as ice I don't wanna fill your grave Fill your grave You would've laughed And you'd be right to If you weren't dead you would have died They had a carwash to pay for your funeral yeah A carwash to pay for your funeral In the parking lot of the bar we called home They had a carwash to pay for your funeral I don't wanna fill your grave I just wanna pop in whenever I want to I don't wanna talk to nobody who not you I don't wanna fill your grave I just wanna touch your skin I don't even care what shape it's in I don't wanna fill your grave Why should I?
