Let's sing until our throats get numb and I don't think that this party's dumb
But if I were to host it, I'd pick something better than
Listening to pop hits of last weeks that sound the same as last years
So let's raise our glasses, to the birthday kid and say
"It's alright, It's okay, Happy Birthday"
Am I getting cocky? I should enjoy this fucking party
But things are looking grim, and someone just passed out in the backyard
I just wanna leave and take you with me
If we leave early we can catch the train out of the city
You can touch on, and touch off, with my Myki
If I get a fine, that's fine, that's fine by me

Put on my earphones, say a prayer
Not to a god but something like that
Assume position, it's now or never
This guy next to me, wants to die basically
You won't like my way of life
But I think I'm gonna be alright
(saying) This is the last time, this is the last time
This is the last I'll drive tonight.
I'm here again, see you working
There's a song in every word you're saying
"Baby, what do you want?
My time is short but it is all yours.
"I don't like my way of life,
But I think I'm gonna be alright
This diner, just a reminder,
Of how I want to leave it behind.
"I don't care how long it takes,
Haunted by your past mistakes
Never loved someone before
That made them worth waiting for"
Don't wait for me,
See what I can't see.
If you love me, leave me behind.
Don't wait for me.

He says "The trick is make them believe in the life you're painting
As you light a cigarette, cause it hasn't happened yet
You're not lying, no, you're just bending the truth.
No one will know unless you tell them
So keep your mouth shut, as long as you can
Everything will be alright. Everything will be just fine"
But now she's missing, I don't know
I can't help but feel like this was our fault
And her face is on the papers
I can't help but feel like this was our fault
The TV man is at my door again
He knows I'm inside but that's alright
He's banging on my door louder than ever before
Says he'll come in one day, just like my dad would say
Oh Tengo, what have you done now?
Oh Tengo, what have you done now?
And they're watching me, I know
Sitting by the window, waiting for her to show
And they're watching me, I know
Sitting in their cars, I know, I'm waiting too

I'm so lucky, then why do I feel like shit?
It's raining, somehow I don't get hit
I see everyone, making their way home
In their shiny cars, sitting on their own
Your voice on the phone, reminds me I'm not alone
We both have our scars, both have broken hearts
But we made it out alive.
That's all that counts.

It's getting close, I need to shower
Cause you'll be here within the hour
And I smell like piss, and something sour
Call Jonah, He's like a brother
Tell him "I'm nervous. Please help me out
She almost at my door and I have my doubts
If she likes me, which I don't know
Can I make her happy? I don't think so"
So I took the shower, my hair is wet
It's so cold in the house, I crave a cigarette
But I don't really smoke, not anymore
Need to calm my nerves, hear you at my door
I slow down, and count to ten
Think it'd be cooler if I just pretend
Like I wasn't waiting for you to knock
Desperately checking the goddamn clock
I open the door
See your face, forget who I was before
You come in, sit on the couch
The curtains are drawn but the room just got so bright
Should let you know I don't have a license
Cause I am scared I will drive you away
I'm a slave to the PTV
But I'm there if you need/want me
