I was totally drunk and she was completely pissed. I mean she was steaming. She threw a vase and she said she meant to miss. You think I believe that you must be dreaming.
She said, "I know I said 'I can't believe I let you ruin my life.' But I didn't mean it. It was already upside down in the ditch."
I was feeling good from the drip in my bed and baby was apologizing. She sent the nurse away and took off that denim jacket. I couldn't keep from smiling.
She said, "I know I said 'I can't believe I let you ruin my life.' But I didn't mean it. It was already upside down in the ditch."
She said, "I know I said 'I can't believe I'm still here every night.' But I didn't mean it. I got so many broken things you can fix."
She gets up every morning and makes coffee like nothing happened. It's best to stay away from those girls in their denim jackets.

Man, I had you on my wall. Now I got you on my arm. There's so much madness in the world and, man, I don't want no part.
Nobody dies like you.
Feel the weight crashing straight through yer heart.
Held up in the heat of lights. Feels like it's been a year. I'll hit rewind one more time. Hey, the picture is still clear!
Nobody dies like you.
Feel the weight crashing straight through yer heart.

Packed up all shit I don't wanna talk about. Cardboard box in the basement underneath the stairs. Marked it "Christmas Decorations" and waited for a flood or the rats to chew it up.
Packed up all the shit I don't wanna talk about. To the sidewalk with the trash but you drag it back and spread it out across the floor so I kick it under the rug. It'll take me days to clean it up.
Can we put a pin in it for the night? Can we put a pin in it? You can talk my ear off cuz I got nothing left to say. Can we put a pin in it for the night?
We've got pins in everything. It's leaping from your lips, it's seeping though my shirt. You ruined my shirt!

Call 'em up. Call 'em up yeah see if I care.
I'm freezing time and I'm drunk enough it might work this time.
Burn it up, burn it up yeah see if I care. It's hard enough when I need your hand.
I'm freezing time and I'm drunk enough it might work this time.
If it was up to me Illinois would be burned to the ground. So hard to stay positive when I ain't got nothing left but double negatives. So put on whatever tune you like and I'll drive for a while. Whatever's cool with you is cool with me.
Wear your best. Put on your best dress and do up your hair. We're going out, see if we still care.
