lyrics

Drop a line the summer’s calling
Missed the bus so we’ll keep walkin’
Couple blocks and all this silence
Bound to turn to talking

Are you down to mess around?
Rising moon and a forty ounce
Sit out on the fire escape
Behind my neighbor’s house

I don’t like to spill my guts but
I get so sad, I get so drunk
I’ll eat these words but I think
You’re a shoulder I can trust

Graveyard shift
Without a ghost to haunt me
Kill my time
I am yours, if you want me

Ketamine, amphetamines
Saying shit that you don't mean
Still you're the boy in all those dreams
I've been blessed to borrow

Latchkey kids have all been told
Rock and roll will save their souls
But spending all this time alone
Is bound to leave you hollow

Can you see it in my eyes?
I’m not much fun, I'm not that nice
But I’d stay up with you all night
To kill the age old sorrow

Graveyard shift
Without a ghost to haunt me
Kill my time
I am yours, if you want me
