walking back to my car i saw you standing by the wall i wanted to ask you your name but i'm too shy and now i won't see you again if i was a different kind of guy i'd write you a song with a hook that's like "oh my god i'm falling in love"

library 02:34
i was in the library i heard your name in my ear my friends blame ghosts when i went outside the sky was turning black. i saw you in the library even though you’re two states away my friends blame ghosts when i went outside it was just beginning to rain. driving home i wondered when you go to sleep do you dream of me?

looking at your clothes in the light its dark; it will stay dark all day and i will move your clothes from one side of the bed to the other i will stay in your bed all day whatever it takes taking valium the first snow of the year walking between two corners of the same room i will spend all of my money the same time every week i will stay in your bed all day whatever it takes taking valium the first snow of the year driving down winters lane in the summer spending all winter at your house
4.
because you’re still in my dreams i guess you mean more to me when i’m out i’m falling out i guess you mean more to me than nothing i guess you know you see it in my eyes every night i guess you know that you wouldn’t be there with me i’m trying not to feel anything

may twenty first it was all going to end that year they said it on tv you came over to my house we stayed in bed until five when you left you kissed me by your car how i wish it had ended then things wouldn't have gone how they did everything would have grown cold we both would have turned into dust
6.
they are coming now riding bikes behind my car and no matter how fast i go i can't leave them behind a spider pulled from your hair a feeling that was never there i stayed up last night in fact i never slept at all and on the drive home i saw a glowing ball of light rising high above my car i felt it brush against my cheek and every summer day i lost you a little more taking off my clothes i am all alone

virginia 01:44
i watch the sunrise in your kitchen i see something in the sky like on my way to south carolina i was sure that i would die maybe not then or the next day after but i knew it was coming soon from a rest stop in virginia i saw the sky turn from blue and now three months and three weeks later i know it won't be long
8.
i didn't see you i wanna be you i wanna be like you i took my clothes off i put a wig on i'll never be like you i'm signing your name to be close to you i ruined my veins to be close to you
