I live just above a coffee shop About two blocks from the Capitol And each morning, I count these steps Before I head outside the front door
My friends are waiting Across the street We all share our hearts On a barstool and a drink
And each morning, I find myself To stumble onto my couch I turn the tv set on as the news reporter sings out loud
"Well, we are all in fear of what we don't know."
And there's this girl She sees between the oldest assumption And the oldest tree And she can recognize beauty 'cause that's all she sees
So she steps out of the door With her backpack in one shoulder And a heart in the other And a heart in the other And a heart in the other And a heart in the other
And we are trying to find someone Who we just met or followed We're all just trying to find the truth Yeah, what is fact or fictional
But this is the woman I love Across the phone, she listens to me Drink myself to death
And so I guess I'm someone Who can't live without you So let's make love like it was the first time
And the sound of the bed goes to be intwined again And we made love again 2x (And we never again?) And we know again
And my friends say I have a way with words (A way with words) And they all listen to what comes out like it's fucking pure (Cuz it's so pure)
And so I've finally have got something to say We are free to do whatever we please And we are free to do what's destroying the country And we are free to do what loving someone so completely means??? And I am free to take this drink And I am free to take my drinks So let my take my drink Let me take my drink Let me take my drink Let me take my drink
