Another goodbye to add to the collection
Another ten green bottles of tears
A tour bus idles in front of the museum
And I’m on the outside looking in
Always on the outside looking in
If I had a brain I’d be finding solutions
If I had a shell I’d be tucked inside
Not stuck to the flypaper walls of this city
Squid ink stained by another goodbye
Another goodbye Chorus—I can’t see for the rain in front of me
But in my heart it’s crystal clear
There is one love I am true to
Though many offer the comfort of
Many words with open arms
Empty words
Empty arms
One day shy of a month without drinking
Why is everybody else sorted but me?
I need an email screener, a lover, a house cleaner, a manager and some personal security
To keep stalkers at bay
And clear away the time to organize
Piles of clutter by my bed
And the chaos in my home
I just can't stand to be left
I just can't stand to be left
'Cause I just can't stand to be left
Alone
Chorus -
