i can't do this anymore:
|
stay in, black out, hit the floor.
|
i've forgotten what i'm hiding from
|
but mama called and cried to me,
|
"baby, your anniversary was last tuesday."
|
that's right...okay, i guess it slipped my mind.
|
and that's fine with me, i guess,
|
though it came as a surprise.
|
i gotta celebrate my memory's retreat
|
it's finally forgetting things.
|
i pushed it away. i let histroy lie.
|
finally memory sleeps.
|
goodnight.
|
|
it's gonna be all right okay?
|
i'm leaving everything behind
|
so goodnight, farewell-and cheers
|
to the new denial.
|
exhausted with the born again routine...
|
you die a little bit each time you smile.
|
so grit your teeth, they like you happy.
