Papillon |
All dressed up, no place to run |
No car, no girl, no pills, no fun |
Nothing to do in this empty room |
I gotta get my head together soon |
Alone again, no fans, no friends |
You call me up at half past ten |
And say «How are you holding up my friend? |
Are you sitting around getting drunk again?» |
And I hear the desperation of those lines |
Wasted hours, all this wasted time |
Yeah, I been just fine! |
And you’re at my door in an hour more |
I stumble down from the second floor |
And we’re swaying and braying |
We don’t know what we’re saying |
And you grab my shirt, your way so curt |
I swear to God that this doesn’t hurt |
When you stare like that, you put on that act |
You’ll say something and then you take it back |
And I feel as though I’ve done something wrong |
Oh, how I miss you and your gun |
And I wish I had the guts to scream |
You know, things aren’t always what they seem |
When you walk away, I want you to stay |
Don’t leave me here to pace and pray |
All these nights I lose you |
As I turn you think that by now I heard |
That you’re only what you pretend to be |
I guess that was just lost on me And I can’t stand the way you look at me In that dress |
Oh, happy I will be alright I guess |
If I wasn’t such a mess |
I’m such a mess |
