tonight i face the page
blank look for what i don't say
started again at the end of the day
all the eyes mees cees and gees
all the snubbed-nose (tough to please)
and sleaze
movin down the garage wall
and i never know what you're sayin
you never say what you're knowin
and i don't even know what i say
and i look over my shoulder
here in you say
we're older now
i look over my shoulder
but you smile me down
you smile me down
you smile me down to size
in an arm's length away
tonight i face the day
the darkest light ray
empty for what i haven't made
in a lonely place for the face that i sang
close the door and turn off the light
in a second i'll be alright
and i never know what's the matter
among this brilliant chatter
i can't even spell out my name
i look over my shoulder
here in you say
we're older now
i look over my shoulder
but you smile me down
you smile me down
you smile me down to size
in an arm's length away
today i face the stains
my tears and coffee mate
alone here last night
i tried to join the parade
but i am not self made so
here i sit here under this sites
and i never know what you're sayin
you never say what you're knowin
and i don't even know what i say
and i don't even know what i say
and i don't even know what i say
i look over my shoulder
here in you say
we're older now
i look over my shoulder
but you smile me down
you smile me down
you smile me down to size
in an arm's length away
