Foggy Windows Hold My Failures

I avoid those types of things,
By saying,
“Oh, I never knew it;
If I did, surely,
I would have taken his pills away,”
But those are just some of my secrets,
And he told me,
My shadow still lays
With him when he tries to sleep at night;
Oh, darling, we don’t have to talk,
All we have to do is drive;
I write my failures and dreams
In the fog of your
Bedroom window,
And watch them run away
With the other optimistic kids
Who play their song-song games
And I think it’s great you got to get away
You’re off somewhere in Mexico
I heard,
But I’m still suck here,
And that absolutely kills me;
It’s just you said,
You’d keep out the sadness,
And, God, I know,
I’m a fool for waiting for so long,
But I believed when you promised
And now you say you’re cryin’
‘Cause you saw it comin’ a long time ago
You just don’t know;
It’d be a lot easier
If you were still talkin’ to me,
But you shoved me in your drawer,
'Cause we wrote stories
That I know,
Will never be told,
And I hate that we both know
That my tears turn to smoke,
I just wanted to let you know,
You’re the opportunity I’ve been
Searching for,
But the ring of the phone
Helps me now,
‘Cause I imagine it’s you
Who’s calling me
When we both know it's the
New guy I've got coming over
