You're out on the couch
Watching tv
And I'm lying alone in bed
Just trying to get some sleep
But it's not the constant noise
That's been distracting me
It's the fear of what I'll see
Inside of my dreams
And it's not the cats
Jumping on and off of the bed
It's the scrutiny of my past failures
On repeat in my head
And the fact that
My mother called me on her lunch break again
And how I'm scared to death
That I'm her only friend
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
But you don't
So let's get out of the house for an evening
I can't drive but you can pick me
Up at 203 S Elmwood Street
Just call me when you get here
Cause there's no free parking
Bricks in the sidewalk
Are constantly cracking
And I can't dodge them all
While I am walking
Cause I'm trying to grab my phone
To pretend like I'm talking
So the homeless man
On the street
Won't ask me for some change
And I've been good all year
I swear
I'm just lacking the energy
To pretend like I care
But soon I'll be broke
And unable to pay my rent
And I'll be on the street with him
Just talking shit
About the people who won't
About the people who won't
About the people who won't
Spare change
So let's get drunk
In someone's unfinished basement
Give our moods a
Temporary facelift
In the morning we can sleep in
Then go out for coffee
Just hope you brought your walking shoes
Cause there's no free parking
There's no free parking
There's no free parking
Yeah there's no free parking
And I don't want to be the one
To tell you to go home
So go ahead and stay the night
And I will keep you warm
Cause I can't stand the thought
Of sending you out into this world
That's just gonna tear you down
And swallow you
Whole
