lyrics
I don't drive, I only ride
On a mattress tied
To the back of your car
In the middle of the night
And you swerve on every curve
So I hold on tight
'Cause I'd swear you're the only one keeping me alive
So I'll beg for a reunion with the outside
'Cause I don't know how to leave you behind
There's cold comfort in the arms of fear
And I don't know who I am when you're not here
So I'll go down screaming how much I love this life
Remember back when I couldn't stand to lie
So now apologies lace everything I write
Empty promises I'll do better next time
And you scream at the 59th Street Station
But I've got a penchant for public humiliation
Did you do all this just for me, dear?
Is this only who you are, when I'm here?
And you'll take everything I have
But I'll keep coming up with more
An empty cup that continues to pour
You're a shape-shifting dream of mine
A nightmare most of the time
But you and I, we both love the night
So I'll beg for a reunion with the outside
'Cause I don't know how to leave you behind
There's cold comfort in the arms of fear
And I don't know who I am when you're not here
Did you fuck this all up just for me, dear?
Is this only who you are when I'm here?
