| Last night, I got lonely in Columbus
|
| Called you for the third time in a day
|
| You said you were feeling better but I still felt so depressed
|
| Cause it doesn’t change the fact that I’m 800 miles away
|
| It doesn’t change the fact that I’m away
|
| Parking in a lot outside the city
|
| Cost me 30 bucks just to be there
|
| You’d think, for all that money, there would be another car
|
| But I looked around and there was no one there, no one there
|
| The streetlights and the moon looked so magnificently bare
|
| And I’m glad for a, a friend like you
|
| And if you call me, then you know I’m always gonna pick up
|
| It’s such a lame excuse to say I’m tired
|
| Everyone is tired, more or less
|
| If you want to see a person come alive, it’s not that hard
|
| To ask the secret of their great success
|
| A feeble mind in empty indecision
|
| Keep in mind the thoughtless points of view
|
| Everyone’s a loser when you isolate the kill
|
| Til you realize they’ve isolated you, yeah, you
|
| You realize that they’ve isolated you
|
| And I’m glad for a, a friend like you
|
| And if you call me up, you know I’m always gonna pick up
|
| There’s no point in seeking out your pity
|
| Making way for tears is such a joke
|
| Cause everyone has days when they feel sh-tty, oh yeah
|
| Somedays, I wish I never even spoke
|
| Somedays, I wish I didn’t have tongue
|
| But I think I’ll take some pills to help me sleep here
|
| From what I hear, the crime is out of hand
|
| And I’m not sure I’ll be better off in dreams, oh no
|
| A sitting duck just waiting for the bad, bad man
|
| How do they get away with their bad, bad plans?
|
| Why are the cops so focused on the speed
|
| When somewhere, there’s a child who is bleeding?
|
| A dog that eats a dog is still a beast
|
| A beast does not deserve a second shot
|
| And if you can’t protect your young, you’ll end up just like me
|
| Lonely in Columbus in a vacant parking lot
|
| So lonely in Columbus, hey |
