lyrics
I Love Feeling Empty (Demo)
Watching the raindrops
Roll down the windshield
Parked at the park on the hill
With the view
The one where on clear days
We could see downtown LA
But today everything’s gray
And I’m not here with you
Cause I love feeling empty
Like a jumper who’s jumping
Off of some beautiful bridge
And I know I won’t do it
But I’ve often thought through it
And it gives me some courage to live
And I hope soon you’re okay
That you don’t feel the same way
And you get well way before me
And you stop drawing pictures
On yourself with your fingers
And scratching your nails till they bleed
And I’ll miss you forever
But I’ll still probably never
Wish you were with me again
Drenched in a raincoat
I sent a paper boat
Down a river that formed
On my street as a kid
So i’m folding your letters
To sail down the gutters
Shipwrecks in the ocean
With my clothes walking in
Cause my feelings are abstract
Never know when they’ll be back
From their long vacation from me
All alone in this basement on the hill
I am waiting
Till the bell jar falls back down trapping
Me in my coma
It’s a house not a home
I’m a boat that’s washed up on the sand
And i hope you get to see
All the places of your dreams
And your passport gets filled up with stamps
And you quit getting let down
By the men of your rebound
And calling me up to tell me
An apology for cheating
You were drunk weren’t thinking
And he swept you right off your feet
And I’ll miss you forever
But I’ll still probably never
Wish you were with me again
