lyrics

Mid-afternoon blues
Conjure some excuse
To talk, so I can talk
To you

I’m tired and weak
Three nights of no sleep
And I think
I think too much too

So I think about the ways I could do better
And I think about the things that I do wrong
If you want to go, then go, ‘cause I’ll get better
Singing ‘la la la’, singing ‘la la la’
Until I’m numb

Bouquet of days
Smells like decay
In the sun
In the heat’s
Where I’ll stay

I’m pacing the floor
By my drawing board
But I’m all
Out of goddamn paint

So I think about the things I could do better
And I think about the things that I do wrong
If you want to go, then go, ‘cause I’ll get better
Singing ‘la la la’, singing ‘la la la’

Oh, won’t you stay for a while?
Forget what I said before
I love how it feels to make you smile
So let’s keep on laughing
Laughing like we were

Oh, won’t you stay for a while?
Forget what I said before
I love how it feels to make you smile
So let’s keep on laughing
Laughing. . .

If you wanna go home then go home
If you wanna stay here you won’t be alone
So why don’t you stay
And we’ll keep, keep on laughing
Laughing. . .
