lyrics

Snuck in through the backdoor, the TV was on and she was blue in the face
the static spoke like a voice, it told me that 'stale is an acquired taste.'
She slept through most of the night time and I slept through most of the day
sometimes we'd go out to lunch but mostly just in the figurative way
But honey don't be so scared of your heart being broken,
how in the hell else do you expect it to ever be opened?
-I found G-d (once or twice) but then I lost Them again
while I was chasing down shadows with Lot's wife and friends
All the clever tricks screamed over my shoulder words like, "Don't look back"
Turned to a pillar of Salt, clinging to the past like it's the mouth of a shot glass.
But I don't want to start over, I don't buy into bullshit new beginnings
No, I know quite well some day I'll die and the earth will keep on spinning.
-Empty or full. You'd have to pick a side to even tell the difference
but I can see that you're the kind of girl who plays favorites
I guess in the end I'll go ahead and let you in
Yeah, I guess in the end it's the same message left in every bottle: Empty.
