The apartment is quite empty
The ashtray is quite full
And there must be some slight difference
Between myself and loneliness
As I wait over backwards
And move across this floor
I'll be back in half an hour
If you could wait a little more
Scarlet light's a cigarette
Evening closes in around us both
Cause this apartment is dumb and boring
This year the confidence was
Lost on the way down
Lifting fingerprints from old matchbooks
Lost on the way down
To wait and not know what to wait for
To wait this year we tried it's over
Cop cars and taxi cabs
Either move too slow or too fast
This apartment is dumb and broken
This year the confidence was
Lost on the way down
Lifting fingerprints from old matchbooks
Lost on the way down
To wait and not know what to wait for
To wait this year we tried it's over
This time I'll try again before
Once let's try again once more
Once we try to get a feel
This time try again
As the dust settles in
Got lost on the way down
Lifting fingerprints from old matchbooks
Lost on the way down
To wait and not know what to wait for
To wait this year we tried it's over
This time I'll try again before
Once let's try again once more
Once we tried again before
This time tried again
