Til It Sings, Til It Screams

I was fucked up in the back of a speeding car
Lit up by the reds and blues that still haven't caught up to you
I was falling apart onstage, singing
"Don't worry about me, don't worry about me."
"Oh, don't worry, I won't."
The streets were just echoes of beauty
Like your taillights in the morning
But I just let it go, yeah, I'm a coward
I always do

"This better be the last time, alright?
Our eyes won't align at all hours of the night
Are you alone? Are you alone?
Yeah, neither am I."

So it's mouthfuls of whatever alcohol I can find
I'm still waiting to be saved
I've been waiting all my life
I've been waiting all my life
And I swore I was fine but I lied
Yeah, I lied, yeah, I lied

So goddamn, I can't forget your taste
Yeah, I can't get anywhere around this state
Without you there

But it still won't change a thing
No, this changes nothing
We'll both still let the phone ring
Til it sings, til it screams

So goddamn, I can't get around this place
Without seeing your face
Without you there
Without you
