From the recording Live at Tiny Music
Lyrics
So I lay alone in the
Shame of thoughts that start
Patient knots round my
Aching heart
For I know that she’s gone where she says
But the faucet leaks and her
Boss is nice
If he talked to her like
I know she likes
But the price of such thinking is space
I believe her
I believe her
Wanna see the same
Waiting and hoping and
Knowing it’s fine
But I am stuck staring in space
Well it’s life or death
I’ll go right or left
And goodnight to anyone
A drive by theft
Of existence that hoped I would not
But that’s all they’ll do
Think she’s solid. Won’t
Have the gall to turn
Towards the wall
She don’t know me to not want to kill
I believe them
I believe them
Wanna see the same
Waiting and hoping and
Knowing it’s fine
I believe them
I believe them
Wanna see the same
Waiting and hoping and
Knowing it’s fine
But I am stuck staring in space
I see her car drive away
I see the bed where he lays
If I’m here where are they?
Am I trusting to stay?
You believe me
You believe me
Wanna see the same
Waiting and hoping and
Knowing it’s fine
You believe me
You believe me
Wanna see the same
Waiting and hoping and
Knowing it’s fine
But I am stuck staring in space
Yes I am stuck staring in space
Yes I am stuck staring in space
But I am stuck staring in space
