lyrics

Walk all day just to get across town.
Spend all my money with no care at all.
Just to see her every couple of weekdays.
While making obscene calls.
She doesn't seem to acknowledge my existence.
Yet she knows I watch her from a far.
I know it's wrong but there's just something about her.
My little cryptic star.

Wipe that smile off your face, it's no laughing matter.
Just relax and watch a film while your ambitions shatter.

Hey Emily, won't you be my friend?
There's piss in my veins until the bitter end.
I'm just a child, and she don't know who I am.
I'll make it worth your while.
Oh no, I won't. Oh no, I can't.

Can you keep a quick secret?
This picture's worth at least 10 words.
I use it when I'm all alone.
I use it when I can't get...

Out of my bed.
Get out of my head.
You've been stuck in there now for days.
I'm watching you breath.
So can you watch me do the same to you?

I can't go two days without you.
It makes my body crumble down.
Be a friend and just ignore me.
We'll be done 3 days from now.

Once you get it all figured, it's too late.
Once you get your head out of the clouds, you'll feel great.
You're so funny.
I'm demented.
We're all alone.
