Your Ex Marked My Spot

A Lot Like Birds

"I'm standing here in pieces, and you're having delusions of grandeur!"

Just for tonight
Can we leave it red?
Cause I've been alone here waiting for some time
And she's been screaming all night
All night

And even if it wasn't what you planned with me
You'd still be here when August turns to April
And asking where I'd been
Well here I am
(Well here I am)

(I'd stay for you)
I thought I might
Just watch as your trepid little footsteps
Synchronize with mine
(I'd stay for you)
So I know that at least we still have time
(Yeah at least we still have time)
Yeah at least I still got time

(I know you think)
That forever's a beautiful word when it's spoken
(But it's not)
When it's spoken two inches from another's face
(Some say love hurts)
And they all tell me that nothing's permanent
(Forever)
As if it could be any
Consolation!

Just for tonight
Can we leave this bed?
Cause I've been alone here waiting for some time
And she's been screaming all night
All night

And even if it wasn't what you planned to be
You'd still be here when August turns to April
And asking where I've been
Well here I am
(Well here I am)
(I'd stay for you)

Well you don't know that I'm tired of the lull
And you won't know
That I'm standing in front of you
Cause I'm staying here
Worked at this job for forty years
And I'm still here

Go!
Shit...
