Drunk Violins

from Flat Earth by Pursesnatchers

/

lyrics

Nighttime begins and I’m lonely again and
The nurse pours another two fingers of gin

We were so sure we were slurring our words
Placing bets on which beds we’d sleep in

Stuck in my skin I could use some new friends ‘cause
My old ones all drank the poison

Sneaking around I write everything down
i'm a terrible spy cause I hate what I’ve found

It’s hard to sleep with the sun in our eyes
Things break down by design
She’s a carousel out of control
I’m a parallel line

She's just a ghost to me mostly memory
A footprint in falling snow

I’m still taking her cues and waiting for news
To make its way back to my barstool

Drunk violins in the alley again
They’re crying ‘cause the night has to end

Some nights I guess I can only say yes
Yes to my friends and yes to my enemies

It’s hard to sleep with the sun in our eyes
Things break down by design
She’s a carousel out of control
I’m a parallel line
On a steady decline
