lyrics

I wish I could lose my sense of object permanence
Wash away my world with the kiss of your lips
Stand in wonder every time you sit at my fence
White picket dreams surf oceans on your mist
I know the dollar in your pocket bought the bullets in my heart
And you knew how much I loved it why'd you leave me in the dark
Did it take a line of credit to buy the gun you shot me with
Did you take the time to think about what you did?

Or am I just a passerby, victim of a drive-by
Keep the doctor on the line, I gotta make it through the night
Just so I can wake up tomorrow, drown out the sorrow, find you so I don't feel hollow
Just so I can wake up tomorrow, drown out the sorrow, find you so I don't feel hollow

Jealous of shadows, my mind is out of whack
The flowers in meadows seem to be laughing back
I'm only here 'cause I have to be
You're plastered to the opposite wall like a masterpiece
You're watching all my blood pour out over me
I'm watching my love give a eulogy
I'm watching my love give a eulogy
You're watching my blood paint a picture on the street

Or am I just a passerby, victim of a drive-by
Keep the doctor on the line, I gotta make it through the night
Just so I can wake up tomorrow, drown out the sorrow, find you so I don't feel hollow
Just so I can wake up tomorrow, drown out the sorrow, find you so I don't feel hollow

I wish I could lose my sense of object permanence
Wash away my world with the kiss of your lips
Stand in wonder every time you sit at my fence
White picket dreams surf oceans on your mist
I know the dollar in your pocket bought the bullets in my heart
And you knew how much I loved it why'd you leave me in the dark
Did it take a line of credit to buy the gun you shot me with
Did you take the time to think about what you did?

Or am I just a passerby, victim of a drive-by
Keep the doctor on the line, I gotta make it through the night
Just so I can wake up tomorrow, drown out the sorrow, find you so I don't feel hollow
Just so I can wake up tomorrow, drown out the sorrow, find you so I don't feel hollow

Am I just a passerby, victim of a drive-by
Keep the doctor on the line, I gotta make it through the night
