Hi, Beth (hi, babe)
Oh, I was just callin' ya to chat with ya
I'm prolly gonna have to get up
At the buttcrack of dawn tomorrow (why?)
Oh, I hear Patsy backed out on ya tomorrow
Is she- (why you told mommy we keep her?) Dammit, John (hm?)
I lost that frickin' steel line (ugh), shit! (Okay, it's alright)
Go fuckin' find it (ah, shit, I'm lookin', man)
Ha-ha, fuck (see I told you my head don't work right)
Yeah, you don't have to tell me that
ย
I'm in the car, I just needed to clear my head
She's in the house with the baby cryin' on the bed
She's got this thing where she puts up the walls so high
It doesn't matter how much you love
It doesn't matter how hard you try
We got a place with a fence and a little grass
I put this film on the windows, and it looks like chapel glass
But when she turns, it's like the shadow of the cross don't cast
No blessin' over our lonely life
It's like waiting for a train to pass, I don't know when it'll pass
But I remember when she used to set the room on fire
With her eyes, swear to God
It's like a flood of grief and sorrow from a haunted life
When she cries like a train, it's a lot
ย
I dropped a line to a flickerin' high school flame
We laughed about all the ways that our lives had changed
She's up the road, about 35 miles north
Got two little boys in school, just had a real bad divorce
And in a moment of weakness
I told her if she ever needed a helping hand
I would lend, swear to God
It's like the part of me that's screamin' not to jump gets lost
In the sound of the train, it's a lot
ย
Tryin' hard
ย
Not to care
Swear to God
ย
I'm in the car outside
ย
I'm in the car outside
ย
I'm in the car outside
ย
I'm in the car outside
