It was a cold and rainy Monday
You tried to bum a spirit from me
I hate to tell you but I am not lonely
So just take the smoke
I ain't looking for your company
Do you taste it now?
The words as they're leaving your mouth
How to twist that spout
Keep you from running all out
Do you believe me now?
I don't care what you're talking about
I'm trying to make it out
It's always nonsense when we shout
I stepped outside and he tried to follow me
The jukebox was playing loud music softly
No one was listening, everyone was talking
When she was through, I asked him calmly
Can you hear yourself?
No one knows what you're on about
You're just spilling out
Too much time with the topshelf
So you've got a personal hell
Keep it inside your own cell
You've gotta live with yourself
Don't try to pawn it on someone else
I hit the pavement with a few less cigarettes
And the slightest buzz
And that sick feeling you get
When you find nothing
Where you swore something was
And as the rain came down
I stopped at a bench
To wash off for a bit
Or maybe let it soak in
But right when I sat down
That's right when the sun came out
And now I'm running
I'm running
I'm running
I'm running on empty
Oh yeah I'm running
I'm running
I'm running all over the town
And now I'm running
I'm running
I'm running
I'm running on empty
Oh yeah I'm running
I'm running
I'm running all over the town
And now I'm running
I'm running
I'm running my mouth
Can you hear yourself?
No one knows what you're on about
You've got to live with yourself
Don't try to pawn it on someone else
