Smoking Rock With My Angel In Milwaukee

Like all great things
It starts with an ending
The door slams shut
And you fall in love again
I'm sicker than I've ever been
And I don't know when it's gonna stop
I'm crying in my car
Parked outside the dog park
I don't know if I can make it
If I don't make it
To allston for lunch
Tell jeff I'm sorry
I didn't mean
Something came up

In the sweet heat of a
Dead or dying summer
I'm night-swimming
Down methadone mile
& ugly crying, I'm trying
To call you a ride
Before my phone dies
Swear this is the last time
Later on beneath the
Unlit sign outside the s-mart
Our stressed out highs
Collide & separate us
But before you can dive
Into the shallow black
Water of my heart
Stomach pangs pull us apart
It's coming at me
Like a car in the night
I live & die in the headlights
I go down sometimes
But they still pay me, baby
I'm graceful when I'm falling
Everyone applauding

(Come back to life
Before my telephone rings)
(In the desert - I swore
That I was born again
Not in a church, but
Under neon heaven)
(You made it hard to have grace
Day after day from the clinic to the grave)
