lyrics

police boats on the river spinning blue light on the water. the bridge arcs slowly over it's the shape of your life story. the dusk is filled with silence. it reminds me of our father. i have to stop and listen because simple things destroy me.

i've spent some time lying down; never sleeping, always speaking. i give someone our money and hope she tells me what i'm thinking.

it's awfully hard to say this but i think we might be through. you write a song for me and i will write a song for you. or you can write your one act play and i'll act the role i'm cast into, you can pretend you never loved me, and i'll pretend the same for you.

i've spent some time lying down; never sleeping, always speaking. i give someone our money and hope she tells me what i'm thinking. if you can play the stoic, well then i will play the weakling. we can meet for drinks and then discuss why we are drinking.

but why now after all these years?
