Losing A Whole Year

Losing a whole year

I remember you and me used to spend

The whole goddamned day in bed

Losing a whole year

Hiding in your room we'd lay like dogs

The phone would ring like a joke that's left unsaid

Losing a whole year

Rich daddy left you with a parachute

Your voice sounds like money and your face is cute

But your daddy left you with no love

You touch everything with a velvet glove and

Now you want to try a life of sin

You want to be down with the down and in

Always copping my truths

I kind of get the feeling like I'm being used

And now I realize you never heard

One goddamned word I ever said

Losing a whole year

Took your stuff and put it in the basement

When I found out what the smile on your face meant

I've seen you pop that check

Craning your neck at my car wreck

It always seems the juice used to flow

In the car, in the kitchen, you were good to go

Now we're stuck with the tube

A sink full of dishes and some aqua lube

And I remember you and me used to spend

The whole goddamned day in bed

Losing a whole year

And if it's not the defense then you're on the attack

When you start talking I hear the Prozac

Convinced you've found your place

With the pierced queer teens in cyberspace

When you were yourself it tasted sweet

But it sours into a routine deceit

Well this drama is a bore

And don't want to play no more

I remember you and me used to spend

The whole goddamned day in bed

Losing a whole year
