For You to Like Me

I've been trying so hard not to try so hard
when I close my eyes my perception is off
with no stories to tell
and no secrets to keep
I worry till I'm sick and then I go back to sleep
cos i've been navigating the subjective
all alone
and never stepping out of my comfort zone
i think it's kind of weird
that i've got you on the phone
i thought i was too marginal
for you to like me
cos i've been navigating the subjective
all alone
and never stepping out of my comfort zone
i think it's kind of weird
that i've got you on the phone
i thought i was too marginal
for you to like me

He's buttoning his tux on the morning of the anniversary
of the third biggest tragedy this century has ever seen
now shes working overtime at the chain spa down the street
he never talks to Johnny anymore
he never wears his glasses anymore
would that ever be enough?
i really ought to watch what i say
but i doubt i have it in me,
I doubt anyone could ever make that change
now that hes purchasing a new car
and watching educational tv
I know leaving town won't fix my flaws
or make me feel any more complete
he never talks to Johnny anymore
he never wears his glasses anymore
would that ever be enough
i really ought to watch what i say
but i doubt i have it in me,
I doubt anyone could ever make that change
but hey, i never thought
we would ever get here at all
I never thought I would ever say it at all
DoI have it in me?
I really ought to watch what i say
cos now he's buttoning his tux
on the morning of an anniversary

It got late too early
but i've never been the kind
to want to go to bed
before the conversation unwinds
I have no strong emotions
for anyone or anything
in my life
at this point in time
but patience has never been a strong point of mine
does love last or does infatuation just waste your time?
I probably won't stick around to find the answers
cos patience has never been a strong point of mine
I have no strong opinions
about any which way to go
you live your life
and i'll quietly live mine
I read foreign news, it's not that i'm complacent
I'm just so afraid to move
this is no job for cutting corners or taking shortcuts
but patience has never been a strong point of mine

Parallel Lines

I've given up
this is my letter of resignation
my cowardly declaration
that I'm through
you're ruled by your moods
I never know what to expect
the lack of constancy
just reinforces my
failing confidence in love
So I will just stay home alone
and listen to Lloyd Cole
Now's not the time to pretend
but it's the only way I know
and we are the same
and we don't deserve this
you're back to the books
you always made it seem so easy
the tragic artist lifts his pen
this time i fear that i've lost you again
I closed my eyes
but i don't remember dreaming
or the trade that i allegedly made
I don't recall anything at all
one hundred golden summers
for a thousand stormy skies
empty parking lots and
parallel lines
and we are the same
and we don't deserve this
and we are the same
and we are the same
and we had to choose this
one hundred golden summers
for a thousand stormy skies
empty parking lots and
parallel lines
and we are the same
and we don't deserve this
and we are the same
and we are the same
and we had to choose this
I've given up
this is my letter of resignation
my cowardly declaration
that I'm through
