Tonight i'll stay awake long enough to stop breathing
and i wonder how long it will take before i pass out drunk off night skies
and lying on hills with wet grass below and blue black above-
i will carry all the weights tonight
'cause i keep remembering the day that you said you might go crazy
if you spent one more minute with me and i just don't know-
is one more minute going to kill you now?
stop before i say too much-
so now i've been alone and it's been going but tomorrow might not come
if i don't let it so don't forget the mornings that we spent deep inside out heads
staring at blank walls 'cause that's what counts
and i don't know but i'm trying to let you go
but i can't cut so well these strings i have around my neck
and i'm trying to let you know that i'm doing this by myself-
so don't forget we sent letters to ourselves without words
and it was just to remember those days that we spent in our heads.
