Matt Allison - "I'll Take What's in the Box, Monty" lyrics

[Verse #1] The sky burns black blue bruised over these lights From the station, these sh**ty cars, these liquor store signs Let's walk and pretend, that we're at the end Of this scraping, this burning, this "the hard way" learning I'm sick. You're tired. Oh yeah [Verse #2] The leaves lay in graves on cracked sidewalk tiles On backs backs bent concave under weights I'm not fine, I'm not fine and I'm not the one crying I'm not fine, I'm not fine and I'm not the one crying I'm sick. You're tired. Oh yeah [Chorus] It can happen to you well, I'd love to believe But I'm slamming this bottle on this same damned street I've melted, I've felt it, it stings worse than pain Apathy, exhaustion, it all seems the same Far away, fire away Fire away, far away [Verse #3] Sit next to me, we can talk or just kiss You can rub my palm and say better than this Your smile makes me cry when it's not on the right And I'm not fine and I'm not the one crying I'm sick. You're tired. Oh yeah [Chorus] It can happen to you well, I'd love to believe But I'm slamming this bottle on this same damned street I've melted, I've felt it, it stings worse than pain Apathy, exhaustion, it all seems the same Far away, fire away Fire away, far away [Bridge] I'm dragging you down 'cause I'm lonely, I need you around And I'm dragging you down 'cause I'm lonely, I need you around [Outro] So smile and sleep So smile and sleep And in the morning creep out the door I don't know what you stayed this long for And in the morning creep out the door I don't know what you stayed this long for Fire away (x7)
