The longer that I`m out here the better you sound
You`re scrunching up your face in this picture I found
And I`m chasing after you, steadily losing ground
I don`t wanna forget so I`m writing it down
Have you ever? No, never never?
I find that hard to believe
So let`s burn the furniture
To see how angry a fire could make me
Now you say that there`s someone that you need to reconnect with
Some scarecrow from high school that you loved but never slept with
A baby with a pipe dream playing hopscotch on your bandages
And I`m singing all his songs while I sleep on your couch
I`m coughing up a lung but I`m covering my mouth
And I paint you on the wall
Yellow, red, green and brown
I miss you all the time but I`m blocking it out
Are you better? No, never never?
What does that say about me?
Now let`s break the smoke alarm
To see how scared locked windows`ll make me
So you say there`s a stranger staring sideways in a deep freeze
A loner draped in ivy playing slumlord in his city dream
A faker with an art form pulling magic tricks on the weak girls up his sleeve
And I`m choking right along with the words in my throat
I`m falling back in love with the letter you wrote
And I think that I was wrong, but I guess I don`t know
I figure that I`ll wait until you tell me so Send " Longer That I M Out Here" Ringtone to your Cell
