a funny thing
i think that you are wrong now
you sober up
and then you say you're sorry

and i think that you're mistaken
when you say that i'll be taken
away

chorus
i want to (want to)
figure things out
and i need to (need to)
be alone for a while
for a while

i know this girl
she often thinks i'm a stranger
and when i'm not
there's still no room for me

what will happen when i'm distant
i don't think that she's resistant
to love

chorus
i want to (want to)
figure things out
and i need to (need to)
be alone for a while
for a while

my mistake
was to leave you
with an open door
my heart won't break
i've got so much
time left to kill
