Dreamt last night that
I saw you again
And you were staring at me
Asking were we friends
You sat down in my seat
Drinking from my cup, oh
And you stood in the door
Wouldn't let me up
I counted sixteen pills
That you set on the desk
And you were grinning at me
At the bones in my fists
You kept talking through blood
Asking what you'd done
I said -
"Man you wrong just about everyone."
"There ain't a path you've crossed you ain't run amiss."
Just a-smiling at me
Asking how I'd resist
I counted sixteen pills
In an open palm up
Just like tea leaves
In a china cup
I counted sixteen pills
In an open palm up
Just like tea leaves
In a china cup
I counted sixteen pills
In an open palm up
Just like tea leaves
In a china cup
