I Won't Be There

When you want to be alone
Just say so
And I won’t be there
No, I won’t
Be there
I won’t
No
And I won’t be there
No, I won’t be there.
When you want me to drive by
I’ll try…I’ll try
When you want me to drive by
I’ll try but I might honk a few times
And I won’t be there
No, I won’t
Be there
I won’t
No
You were laughing with a friend
I didn’t mean to make it end
But I had to talk to you about something serious
Then you lost your ride and
You were furious
I wish I was a better lyricist
Oh no!
When you want to buy a house
I’ll let you pick it out
When you want to buy a house
I’ll pay and you can pick one out
And we will live there
Yes, we will live there
We will
Yes!
We will live there
Yes, we will live there

For the record I’m not one to reenact or counteract
I would never want to bust your chops
And nothings sweeter than you when you’re sweeter than usual
My sweet
I’m done with deciding
I know that you’re the one for me
I’ll try to stay with you
As difficult as you can be
You’re not easy but I guess nothing really ever is
In this world, in this town, in this house
And I’m in love and you’re in love and love is just enough
To get by
Chorus
Buy me a rose even though I’m not a girl
But I like it, and it’s pretty
Pass the hour being sour, being so relentlessly
Set upon weighing down the night
I don’t know how to turn your frown upside down,
guess I’ll have to stand on my head

Throw me down and then you’re willing to pick me up
Go leave town but then you’re happy to ring me up
Give a haven for my scary thoughts I would have lost
Applauding audience for all my stupid pratfalls
Go to sleep so I don’t wonder what you’re thinking about
Make a sound and freak me out
Make a sound and freak me out
Make a sound and freak me out
Eat my time by bringing up everything I mind
Make a face like you were waiting all day in line
Walk your fingers like a little guy across my hair
Watch where you step I bet I left a mess of wet sweat there
Chorus
Pour me in and then you’re liable to spill me out
Tuck me in and then you’re waiting to drag me out
Follow up a thought with slapping hands hysterical
Make me dinner when you know that I’m already full

The walk home from the subway’s
Been covered many times now
And if so that’s just because
I haven’t figured much out
Nothings attractive to me
I think I like how that sounds
A well worn path on the ground
leads me right to where I’m…
Home to deal with you, going
Home to deal with you
If Im feeling happy
Then everything is catchy
But if I'm feeling sad
Everything just lags
And god I hate the city
I just don’t think it fits me
But I think Queens is pretty
Pretty fucking shitty
Home to deal with you, going
Home to deal with you
Home is where the – WHAT?
Home is where the –WHAT?
Home is where what?
I come in through the door and
Sit down on the couch
The corner of my eye
You’re by my side
Pillow in your place
A pillow for your face
A pillow on your face
You take up space
A pillow on your face
You take up too much space
You take up too much space
YOU TAKE UP TOO MUCH SPACE

Ran Out Of Room (Demo)
04:04

Never thought that this would happen to me
If you look to my left you’ll see
Life has been one big beautiful dream
Nothing left for me to do it seems
Slip on my robe
Nowhere to go, so…
I ran out of room, so
I ran out of room
I don’t have enough arms to grab my things
I wish I could take it all with me
I’ve seen every movie left to see
All my favorite bands have gone to seed
No more firsts
Nothing lasts…
Can’t stretch it out
Can’t even shout
