Rest assured I fly home just to lay myself down My father’s gone under I'm not around to give him my shoulders
I can lie and say I’ve tried to leave sooner But being a stranger feels a lot better When I'm up to the pager
It’s horrible, but I'm thrilled to know That being alone is all I’ll have to show It’s wonderful, but as skin to bone I'm only this good if I lose Enough to fear the rest of it will go
