A sad bar overlit I've come to praise not dismiss Loneliness Waiting for the axe to fall Acting like I've seen it all Can you think of shelter Can you have a place that's warm Walk tall walk out Leave me here but not without Loneliness Waiting for your boyfriend to call Hoping that he'll perish in the fall Thought I'd cut my losses Hoping that the days are small Can you lean and tell her Around here was the place I was born Same sex as me She's the same sex as me Loneliness I wound myself in a ball Hoping to feel nothing at all Can you think of shelter Can you have a place that's warm Can you lean and tell her Around here was the place I was born And later that year My hair turned the colour of corn
