Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you And hang them in my room So when I'll wake up I'll be like, "Yeah, everything's all right" You are still here, you are still happy You are still smiling and laughing You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life
And it goes in, in, out through the mouth Breathing exercises I will never figure out So I am running in circles or Walking in circles or Crawling in circles or Lying on the ground
And I Can hear your dog whistle from my bedroom And I Can see a flashlight cutting Up the trees behind my house
She says a lot of the kids we graduated with are now homeless Which puts them in mad shady situations with mad shady people If not everyday, then on an every-other-day basis And she's probably with a few of them right now And they are probably just drinking and talking about How she misses gettin' fucked up and hangin' around
And he says, "Hey, you're good at that" And she says, "Thanks, it's kind of all I got" And then she looks away and says, "It's also all I need" And I can smell plastic burning I can smell chemicals breaking down I got your last three e-mails The ones where you said "I was sorting some things out"
And he will be able to hear her dog whistle from his bedroom And I Can see a flashlight cutting Up the trees behind my house And I will read the flashing Like a Morse code explanation Though it'll mean nothing But take all night to figure out, out, out
I am sad, I am sad And I am happy, oh, God, I'm happy There's just no place in between for us to meet But I am sad, I am sad But when I am happy, oh God, I'm happy There's just no place in between for us to meet
When I am sad, oh God, I'm sad But when I'm happy, I am happy And there's just no place in between for us to meet When I am sad, oh God, I'm sad But when I'm happy, I am happy And there's just no place in between for us to meet
